The projects we engage with on campus are guided by our climate action plan and typically fit within our six action areas of:

However we also engage with a range of projects that more broadly聽fit within our overall effort to be good stewards of the earth such as:

Transitioning green space around campus to native and pollinator friendly vegetation
Maintaining a campus garden for members of the campus and聽community
Divesting from fossil fuels
Limiting pesticide use on campus
Repurposing wood from trees taken from campus grounds
Creating a responsible Bottled Water policy on campus

鈥淲orking together, we have proven that sustainable development is possible; that reforestation of degraded land is possible; and聽that exemplary governance is possible when ordinary citizens are informed, sensitized, mobilized and involved in direct action for聽the environment.鈥�
