Departments, programs and people at Michigan State University will soon have the opportunity to be recognized for the work they do that helps reduce the university’s environmental footprint.
Beginning Nov. 9, departments and on-campus students can earn green certification by completing an online form showing the steps they take to reduce MSU’s impact on the environment through energy efficiency and conservation, waste reduction, water conservation and purchasing.
In addition to reducing MSU’s environmental impact, there will be several other benefits to earning green certification:
Recognition for units, departments and students at an Earth Day event April 22, 2010.
Use of the green certification seal on departmental communications, recruitment and other materials.
Buildings where all departments earn green certification will have a tree planted or a plaque recognizing the building as “green certified.”
