Princeton Review rates Emory #17 in the country in terms of “green”-ness (ie sustainability efforts).
Most of the others in the top 20 are very small, relatively small colleges. Other national universities that made the top 10 are Stanford, UC Davis, U of Vermont, Colorado State U and Cornell.
Off the top of my head, such efforts include:
- the organic farm at Oxford College that supplies food to its kitchens and other local kitchens; https://oxford.emory.edu/offices-and-services/organic-farm.html
- LEED certified construction mandated at Oxford College and Emory College http://sustainability.emory.edu/page/1007/green-buildings/green-space https://oxford.emory.edu/life/sustainability.html
- No Net Loss of Forest Canopy policy http://sustainability.emory.edu/page/1007/green-buildings/green-space
- Pollinator Protection Plan http://sustainability.emory.edu/page/1007/green-buildings/green-space
- Emory Eco-Friendly Water Hub (water recycling) http://www.campserv.emory.edu/fm/energy_utilities/water-hub/
Have I missed any major green efforts on campus?
