Mississippi Students and Alumni Gather for Environmental Summit, Students push for renewable energy future for Mississippi

 

This weekend Ole Miss and Mississippi State University students and alumni gathered at Roosevelt State Park for the third Mississippi Alumni and Students for Sustainability (MASS) Environmental Leadership Summit.

Introducing our newest summer fellow -- Niko!

Hello! My name is Niko Segal-Wright, and I am joining the Southern Energy Network's No Coal Campaign for the month of July. I got started after the 4th of July weekend. I've had two years of experience canvassing and field managing for MassPIRG in the past, and I hope to bring some of those skills to the table here.

Florida Students Lead the Way Towards Carbon Neutrality

The Florida campaign for Student Green Energy Funds (SGEF) at state universities scored a major victory this past semester. At the University of South Florida (USF,) students voted to implement a SGEF on their campus next fall. A SGEF is a small per credit hour fee that is then spent on renewable energy and energy efficiency projects on campus. At USF specifically, students voted to enact the fee at $1.00 per credit hour. This will make the fee the first of its type in Florida, and one of the only truly democratic fee structures in the state.
