We believe in empowering others to take action about environmental issues. Even if you may feel small or insignificant, every voice can make an impact. The Carbon Newsprint is here to help you make that impact. We create education resources, support other growing student organizations, have local cleanup efforts and petitions, and raise awareness through our blog.

CAPteen is a two-week mini-internship blending digital media & communications, personal & professional skills, and the creative arts through the lens of photojournalism. BCAPteens will learn about photography, complete visual storytelling assignments, develop an independent project, and create an online portfolio. Participants document the BCAP Summer Camp program in action. Independent projects are on a subject of the artist’s choice, and work from this project will be shared at a pop-up exhibition. BCAPteen interns earn a stipend and volunteer hours, while building skills, expressing their creative interests, and having fun. The program’s home base is BPL Central Library.

Dr. Giboney and his team of students organize a week-long series of learning activities designed to introduce various cybersecurity topics. We aim to make each workshop both useful in everyday life, as well as tactile. For example, in 2016 our password security workshop had attendees write a simple password cracker to better understand how computers can be used to attack weak passwords. For our more experienced attendees, an advanced track aims to both entertain and educate. Topics are always varied and diverse, taught by students in the IT program, with mentors always on hand to help out.
