Started in the year 1991, EARTHlink has been the only environmental club in Nanyang Technological University (NTU). Over the years, EARTHlink managed to establish considerable initiatives that aim to promote environmentalism. Activities such as Bring Your Own Bag Campaign, Environmental Awareness Campaign, Ecoventure and Recycling Drive, are just one of the many that we have embarked on.
Ecoventure is an annual overseas outreach program with the aim of nature conservation. It provides idea exchange among participants from NTU participants as well as people from another part of world. It’s also a great opportunity for exposure to various kinds of ecosystems.
