A big shout-out from the Sobuka folks goes out to Elfalem from the Univ. of Maryland in College Park! Why do you ask? because he saw a green related issue, took a picture of it, and sent it for our Green Photo of the Month contest, and yes, he’s the winner for February with a $50 prize!
In his own words, “the picture represents the efforts undertaken by the University of Maryland to reduce its trash and protect the environment in typical Terp fashion,” and as mostly former Terp alumni ourselves, we couldn’t agree more! In fact, the university set up a sustainability council in 2009 that operates a fund for various green projects, and the school was recently awarded grant money to install a 641 kWh solar PV system on one of its buildings. For more on the university’s efforts visit http://sustainability.umd.edu.
Thanks again to all the participants! For your chance to WIN take part in our next contest.
Contest Rules:
Submit one picture that you took of something green (environmentally friendly technology, service, process, etc.). Remember to tell us where it was taken, and why you think it’s green related. Mail your photo to contest [at] sobuka [dot] com. Happy shootin!
