Boasting numerous environmentally friendly eateries and even an organic clothing store, Ithaca remains an ecologically conscious community. It should come as no surprise then, that students, faculty and other members of the community have followed in this grain and are pursuing many environmentally conscious endeavors right here on Cornell’s campus. Campus Sustainability Day, sponsored by The Sustainability Hub, served as a forum and display for the various Cornell clubs and community organizations that are committed to sustainability. Everything from advocacy groups, including KyotoNow! and the Cornell Organization for Labor Action, to local Ithacan food vendors was showcased on Ho Plaza yesterday afternoon, offering information on posters and fliers and even organic food samples.
