Electric buses transform UGA’s transit system
The University of Georgia is revving up its approach to sustainability. With 33 new Proterra electric buses set to be in circulation by 2021, UGA is making the transportation industry a little greener.
Laura Carter is driven by her love for the environment and dedication to educating others on sustainable practices.
As a safety compliance specialist with UGA’s Environmental Safety Division (ESD), she helps laboratories across campus adopt simple but impactful actions — such as proper chemical storage and disposal — to create a safer, healthier community.
Carter’s dedication to the environmental began early.
“I’ve always really cared about trying to do what I can to help make where we live a better place,” she said. “Being a good steward of the environment and keeping everybody safe has always been something I’ve been super interested in.”
