On Wednesday, April 17th from 11:30-1, F&M will be giving SmartStrip Power Strips to all students who attend an educational event on climate change at the Wohlsen Center.
Students will also be able to recharge appliances with bikes and use a macro we developed to see how many biking hours their dorm rooms use each day. We hope that by letting students see how much energy it takes to actually power their lives, that they will think more about wasting energy.
The event will be open to students, faculty, and staff.
