Culture of 可持续发展FB体育

FB体育 is proud to be a leader in sustainability. 可持续发展FB体育 is a culture that's visible the moment you step onto campus. Green buildings incorporate energy efficient technologies and a focus on human health. Environmentally conscious grounds management means we plant local and adaptive species. We use solar energy, strive for zero waste, and work with community partners to offer sustainable transportation. The culture of sustainability is evident through faculty research efforts, student involvement, and staff practices. These are just some of the elements that contribute to FB体育's commitment to having a small footprint.

Celebrate 5 Years of Carbon Neutrality

5 Years Carbon Neutrality Sticker

Each year on April 22, we celebrate Earth Day—the idea for which was planted at Airlie and came to fruition in 1970. This year, we are commemorating the five-year anniversary of FB体育 reaching the pivotal milestone of carbon neutrality—a goal that we reached two years ahead of schedule. Since this 2018 achievement, we have continued our efforts to reduce emissions and improve efficiency across campus and broadened our focus on sustainability to include environmental justice, wellness, and scholarship.  We hope to see you at the following events, which recognize the five-year anniversary and provide opportunities for us to engage on this special occasion.
