Each fall, UNH holds an energy conservation challenge for students. Begun in 2006 by a UNH student, the competition first began between on-campus residence halls and apartments. 

In one year, UNH dorms alone emit almost 19,000 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions, the equivalent of nearly 30,000 barrels of oil. Help us reduce our environmental impact by unplugging your appliances and hitting the switch!

Starting October 24th, the EcoAdvocates and UNH Sustainability Academyare teaming up to put on UNH Unplugged, the annual energy challenge. Help your dorm compete with the rest of campus to save the most energy.Win cool prizes and reduce campus energy consumption!

Unplug, compete, and save!
