The much-anticipated Division I College Basketball Tournament is right around the corner, and we expect a high percentage of the schools competing in the men’s and women’s division I games to be ACUPCC signatories. If you and others from your school send in enough great photos, videos, and stories about sustainability and athletics on your campus, your school just might win the Green Bracket Competition. The Second Nature team will be posting the best images and stories online in the effort to generate some friendly competition and publicity for green schools as well as highlight progress on the greening of athletics programs.
The competition runs now through April 7. You do not have to be affiliated with a school that’s in the Division I college basketball tournament or that is part of the ACUPCC to participate. And submissions can pertain to basketball or any other college sport or athletics program that incorporate sustainability. For more on the game rules, click here.
Submissions and questions go to greenbrackets@secondnature.org. Seewww.greenbrackets.com for more information.
Good luck, and may the most enthusiastic green team win!
