The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship is “Going Greener”

CPGC Cafe

On Wednesday April 14th the Center for Peace and Global Citizenship, in partnership with the Committee for Environmental Responsibility, cordially invited the entire College community to attend a luncheon to celebrate the kick-off of the “Going Greener” campaign!

CPGC is walking the walk when it comes to going greener. The café is using corn based flatware that can be composted. New containers have been clearly labeled for composting, recycling and trash. Food scraps are collected and delivered to the dining center for composting.

Below is the menu for the “Local Food” luncheon prepared by the dining center.
o    Potato Leek Soup (Local Potatoes and Leeks)
o    Turkey Sandwiches (Local Turkey)
o    Grilled Portabella and Romaine Sandwiches (Grilled Portabella Sandwiches-Portabella Mushrooms and Romaine);
o    Egg Salad Sandwiches (Local Eggs)
o    Spinach Salad with Apples (Local Spinach and Local Fuji Apples)
o    Artichoke Salad (Jerusalem artichokes, carrots turnips, parsnips )

And they’re not done yet. Director, Parker Snowe and his staff are looking into carbon offsets for their students who travel abroad this summer. Stay tuned…
