We support institutions as they integrate sustainability into their curriculum and on their campus grounds.

We are able to assist your university with a number of tasks associated with improving the environmental literacy within your campus culture. These services are free-of-cost, and could include:

  • Assessing existing operations and education and outreach needs
  • Working with sustainability task forces, environmental committees, and "green teams" to identify team goals and objectives as well as university-wide initiatives
  • Improving current operations to meet industry best practices and current standards
  • Writing and incorporating policies to facilitate change
  • Publicizing results to encourage success
  • Working with the Missouri Gateway Green Building Council  to provide other opportunities to get involved in green professions
