Campus Greening Initiatives
Campus “greening” initiatives are catching on at community colleges and universities across the United States! Though the concept of sustainability has only recently entered the public psyche, a handful of forward-thinking U.S. universities have had sustainability on the mind for decades. As a vital part of a country’s growth, it only makes sense that universities should play a key role in ensuring the sustainability of important resources like energy and water. Read on to learn how schools are putting ideas into practice.
