This day we made a tour on the gardens of UWW, our guide Steve Bortinelli, the person who is in charge of the gardens and sustainability program on UWW gave us a lot information about his work, also he answered the next questions:
1.- How many kind of plants and flowers there are on the campus of UWW?
Over 100 for all, some flowers are wild, we didn't cultivated but we adopted as part of our garden, because we are cheap (laughing in this last sentence).
2.- Since when you stared cultivate flowers on the campus?
Around 15 years, I've been working here since 2000, the gardens were very different, but we still working on many projects and improvements.
3.- Could you give us an example of sustainability used on the campus?
Sure, the fountain's water is pumping constantly, we made this to not waste clean water, as well the vases which are on the lamps were can trash one day, but we decide give it other use, it's a way to save money, because... We are cheap! (continuing laughing)
