Near East University [NEU] Green Campus Project has been initiated via seminars

The NEU Green Campus Project was initiated with the aim to create a healthy environment, a brighter future and a green campus.

According to the press release by the Directorate of Press and Public Relations of Near East University, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Özge Özden Fuller drew attention to the status of the environment and gave examples of how to overcome environmental problems. She emphasised that over time, the air, water and earth was getting more polluted and that in big cities the industry was making the situation worse.

She added that the hole in the ozone layer, and an increase in global warming, cancer and similar fatal incidents  and a decrease in natural resources all indicated that there was a need to take action to protect the environment.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Özge Fuller expressed that everybody needed to take action to preserve the environment and for a cleaner and greener environment, there was a need to manage our wastes and recycle. She added that we should not waste electricity power and water in cases not needed, to prefer to use public transport or either to walk or cycle to our destinations, to share knowledge on environment and do anything possible to keep our environment “clean and green’.
