MIC Thurles Green Campus Charter
The Green Campus Committee of MIC St Patrick’s Campus, Thurles consists of student and staff volunteers that are representative of the community on our campus.
Aims
Our aims are:
- To make environmental awareness and action an intrinsic part of the life and ethos of our campus, involving students, all staff, local business, media, contractors and visitors.
