The Sustainable Student
About the Sustainable Student:
The Sustainable Student Blog was created to provide the UofG community with a platform to share information, features and opinions on community sustainability initiatives, emerging issues, or their own lived experiences trying to be sustainable. The student-led blog strives to increase social and environmental awareness via the contributions of the University of Guelph community.
The blog is updated weekly with new written or multi-media pieces, and posts are promoted publicly through the Sustainable Student's Instagram.

Hear from our Sustainability Ambassadors:
“I wanted to meet people with a similar passion, find an extracurricular and share my love for sustainability. The Sustainable Student Blog has been such a big part of my university experience. Not only have I met many students from vastly different programs, but I’ve been able to see the blog grow in followers, readers and contributors. It’s been a great way to learn website development, social media and explore the many different sustainability topics. I am so proud of how far the blog has come and very excited to see where it goes” - Olivia Gregoire, Student Blog Manager.
