Go Green Week 2012
From Monday 20 to Saturday 25 February 2012, Warwick will be celebrating its annual Go Green Week - the largest nationwide student-led environmental campaign and a celebration of work on environmental issues.
The week offers a huge range of activities, from speakers to slam poetry workshops, meaning anyone and everyone can find a way to learn about climate change and engage with environmentalism. Look out for street theatre, smoothie makers, special menus in the SU food outlets and brilliant events.
The week is rounded off with a Climate Forum on Saturday 25 February, with an array of talks, workshops and debates.
