Green refills save the planet and your funds

Save your money and the environment by bringing your own bottle or cup to the cafeteria. In a new program offered by the cafeteria this fall, anyone bringing their own cup can get a discount on drinks.

According to University statistics, by buying just one beverage a day in a disposable cup, you'll end up creating about 23 pounds of waste in one year.

 GSU has a long track record of being environmentally minded, and in a further effort to eliminate waste and go green, Governor's State is now offering a green refills policy. Whether it's coffee or soda you're craving, by bringing your own reusable bottles you can refill them for the price of a small Starbucks drink, or the refill price for a fountain drink.

 You can even grab some water for free, or if you forgot a bottle, purchase any size cup inside for only 20 cents plus tax. Coffee tumblers and water bottles can be purchased in the bookstore from $9 to $14, or you can use your Welcome Days bottles as well.
