This month, Alabama Power is helping college students learn more about sustainability through campus events in honor of Earth Month.
On April 13, representatives from the company’s Public Relations, Marketing, Shorelines and Renew Our Rivers participated in the UAB Earth Month Festival on the University of Alabama at Birmingham campus. They showcased five electric vehicles and the power of induction cooking with bananas Foster cooking demonstrations, and educated students about Renew Our Rivers and Shorelines.
On April 18, representatives from Public Relations and Community Initiatives joined Alabama Power’s Western Division in participating in the University of Alabama’s GreenWeek event, sharing Renew Our Rivers and Shorelines information with students.
“We have had many students interested in volunteering with Renew Our Rivers and learning about how the company is involved with energy efficiency and sustainability,” said Sarah Reid Harris of Alabama Power’s Public Relations Department. “It’s a great way to meet students where they are and show the impact the company has across the state.”
