February 16 is the National Day of Energy Saving and Sustainable Lifestyles and, in Italy we celebrate it through the 19th edition of the "M'illumino di Meno" (Dim my lights) campaign.

The School is a member of the Network of Universities for Sustainable Development (RUS) and therefore invite the entire community to participate in the initiative showing our care and attention to the environment: at 12:00 on Thursday 16 February switch off for 5 ' the lights in the room,  as well as computers and any other electrical devices.

Furthermore, at 18.15 the lighting of the San Girolamo Cloister will be switched off, in coordination with the other two town's universities - Scuola Normale Superiore and University of Pisa - which will thus switch off the lights of their historic buildings for two minutes. In Piazza dei Cavalieri, the lights of the buildings under the jurisdiction of the Municipality of Pisa, which adheres to the initiative, will also go out.

In consideration of the environmental and social challenges  we are facing, we remind that adopting virtuous and environment-friendly behaviors is of the uttermost critical importance.

The initiative is sponsored by RUS
