Last Friday The Daily Texan wrote about the eco- nomic impact UT football games have on the Austin community. What wasn’t mentioned in that particu- lar story, however, was that the 100,000 fans stream- ing into Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium also have a weighty environmental impact. UT foot- ball already sponsors Longhorn Recycling Round- up, a program which encourages fans to recycle and has already accounted for 4.88 tons of recycled plas- tic this year. UT is also participating in the Game Day Challenge, a program sponsored by the Environmen- tal Protection Agency, in which 87 schools compete to see who can recycle the most. Some schools are stepping up to do more, though. On Saturday, the University of Houston and South- ern Methodist University played the first “carbon- neutral” college football game in Texas. SMU pur- chased renewable energy and carbon credits to help offset the “carbon footprint” produced by traveling teams, bands, fans and the electricity used at the sta- dium. The game, which SMU lost 20-45, was part of a University-wide homecoming weekend that also included a used shoe drive and homecoming floats made from reusable materials. College football’s popularity lends itself to pro- moting important causes such as environmentalism and sustainability. Harnessing school pride for recy- cling doesn’t just save a few hundred pounds of alu- minum cans; it also reinforces good habits that fans can continue at home during the week. On a side note, Iowa State University is also partic- ipating in the Game Day Challenge. If we can’t beat them, maybe we can out-recycle them.
