VMU Go Green is the university’s project means more than protecting the planet — it’s about supporting people, valuing culture, strengthening communities, and reducing waste in every part of life. We believe that real, lasting change happens when we focus on the interconnectedness of nature and society — when we nurture not only the earth beneath our feet but also the relationships, traditions, and habits that define who we are. By fostering mindful living, and encouraging practical steps to minimize waste, we aim to build resilient communities where both people and the planet can thrive together, today and for generations to come.
Get rid of disposable cups and acquire a non-disposable coffee cup for multiple use. You will find it especially comfortable to use in coffee-shops. Did you know that only 14 % of people in Lithuania consciously reduce the use of disposable items, whereas the total EU average is over 30 %. The time has come for you to do your part!
Conserve the light not only in your own home, but at the university as well. Did you know that in order to make 1 kw of electricity one needs 10 liters of oil?
Since 2008, Vytautas Magnus University is a partner of The European GreenLight Programme, an initiative of effective lighting in Europe. This initiative seeks to reduce the use of inside and outside lighting in Europe, thus also reducing pollution emissions and limiting the global warming.
Simply by arriving to the university not by our own car, but on foot, by bike or public transport every day, we would significantly reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide into the environment. You can park your bike at the bicycle parking spaces in front of the university (K. Donelaičio g. 52).
Contrary to what we have been taught in school, there is now nothing wrong with writing text in the margins of the page. Think of all the paper that goes to waste every day due to this rule. Before printing anything, take some time to think if you really need it. Recycle your old studying materials and journals – remember, a ton of recycled paper saves 17 trees!
Conserve the energy of the elevator – better use your own! According to statistics, almost half of all the people in Lithuania do not do exercises. Thus, taking the stairs will help you stay healthy and beautiful.
The community of the university can contribute to the conservation of the environment and nature in many ways. Various documents are available as computer files, uploaded to the intranet and the Internet – that way, the use of paper and printing costs can be reduced.
