Go Green is one form of love on the
environment. Go Green
solicitation should be done as early as possible and applied starting from the
small things. One form is the realization of the Go Green program "Campus Green". Campus is one of
the targets or the appropriate vehicle for the realization of solicitation Go Green. Because the students is a
major actor who holds the baton as the next generation who was instrumental to
creating a healthy environment and friendly with humans (the agent of change).
Green campus that can be
done in various ways, including the provision of bins categorized, ie for the
category of organic waste and non-organic. It is intended that we can
classify the types of waste can be recycled so as to savely together.
Action recycling of waste
can be done by applying the principle of 4R. These principles include:
1. Reduce (Reduce): do as much as possible the minimization of
the goods or materials that we use;
2. Reuse (Using again): as much as possible choose items that
can be used again.Avoid the use of disposable goods (disposable, throw);
3. Recycle (Recycling): as much as possible, the goods who is no
