Energy costs have escalated in recent years and currently represent a major component of the UWI, Mona campus’ central expenditure budget. While the escalation is due in part to rising fuel prices, the main contributors to high energy cost are the inefficient electricity use as well as inefficient water consumption. With this in mind, the Environmental Committee has developed an energy conservation initiative dubbed “iConserve”. This is a campaign which will see our committee acting as ambassadors, encouraging simple energy-efficient behaviour in hall among residents as persons tend to take energy for granted and many are unaware of the opportunities they have to reduce energy use. “A little more saved, a little less paid” goes a long way as consuming less electricity and water may lead to the possible stabilization or even reduction in some of the fees we pay as students! iConserve, do you? Show your support and conserve.
