UBC has saved an amazing $1,000,000 in furniture purchasing costs through its Furniture Reuse Program. A small-but-mighty idea to re-home furniture destined for disposal kick-started a sustainability success story right here on campus. By reusing what is already made (instead of buying new) we can lower purchasing costs while significantly reducing our environmental impact through reduced waste and life-cycle emissions.
Don’t miss out on the opportunity to win furniture prizes at the million-dollar milestone event.
Organized by UBC Facilities. Part of Climate Emergency Week.
