The following guidelines have been adapted from Simon Fraser University\u2019s \u201cSustainable Spaces: Events, Vancouver Campus<\/a>\u201d and Princeton University\u2019s \u201cSustainable Event Guidelines<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> AVOID IT<\/p> Try experiences instead such as photo booths, event tickets, food, movie screenings, repair stations, and more. The options are endless!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> Upcycle \/ Reuse<\/p> Consider options that don\u2019t require buying new, such as decorating reusable bottles, clothing swaps, zines or book binding from reused paper, or screen printing items students already own.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> Useful and Ethical<\/p> If you\u2019re going to buy new, consider products students will actually use, are durable, and come from trusted, ethical sources. We recommend checking out some of PLAN\u2019s discounts on brands such as To-Go Ware, Klean Kanteen, People Towels, and more.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> Useful or Ethical<\/p> We understand you can\u2019t always find affordable useful and ethical swag. At least try to buy one or the other! Useful items can include durable ballpoint pens, carabiners, or sewing kits. There may be other swag options which are less useful but come from ethical sources. We recommend using these items as a last resort.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> Useless and Questionable<\/p> Please avoid buying useless swag from questionable retailers. This can include items such as fidget spinners, foam fingers, slap bracelets, and so much more.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>DECORATIONS<\/strong><\/h3>\n
