Focusing on global environmental sustainability issues, the Environmental Action Committee is the oldest student environmental club on campus. Each year EAC chooses different issues on which to focus and conduct educational outreach projects. From diversifying the environmental movement to the effects of factory farming, EAC covers a wide range of topics based on student interest.

EAC plans the Earth Fest celebration held each year in the fall and Earth Day in the spring, as well as participating in the annual local Peace Day event. Currenlty, EAC is working on a Mountain Top Removal Coal Mining campaign, to raise awareness about this destructive industry, and how NH is directly connected.
Earth Fest is coming up and EAC plans to celebrate in a big way, with live music, local food, and plenty of educational information. Climate Counts, Seacoast Eat Local, and several student organizations will table with information, games, and petitions.
