Keep warm while keeping the planet cool.

On Thursday, February 17, join Canadians across the country in turning down your thermostat by 3 degrees, and throw on a fun, quirky sweater to show your support for the planet.

Join us at UBC where student led initiatives are turning down the heat in the Student Union Building, Koerner Library, in first year student residences and in Place Vanier Dining Hall!  Look out for fun, wacky, cheezy and silly sweaters at these locations!!

What you can do:

1. Turn down your thermostat by 3 degrees at home on February 17. If you are able to control a thermostat in your department/office, turn it down by 3 degrees.

2. Wear a wacky sweater to work. Encourage your department members and networks to do the same. Dig out that loud, clashing sweater from your closet. Have a laugh with your colleagues and peers.

3. Pledge your commitment to Sweater Day by February 17 and get entered in a draw to win prizes!

4. Get Sweatered on Facebook.

5. Continue to support climate action at home and at UBC.
