Sustainability
At Duke University, sustainability starts from the bottom up—each year the administration commits $50,000 to fund student, staff and faculty led initiatives which will “green” Duke. The fund has been used to put on conferences, conduct research, provide education and training, and seed new programs. Numerous grants have been awarded in the past year. For example, funding went to water bottle refilling stations in the School of Public Policy to reduce need for disposable plastic water bottles and a student organized sustainable dinner at Duke on national Food Day. There are numerous active environmental student organizations on campus, spanning the undergraduate and graduate population—including Duke’s Business, Medical, and Law schools. Furthermore, the sustainability office pays fifteen student employees to work on campus sustainability projects throughout the year as part of the Students for Sustainable Living program. There are also many opportunities for students to study sustainability in the classroom. The Nicholas School of the Environment offers four undergraduate degrees: an AB and BS in environmental sciences, and an AB and BS in earth and ocean sciences. Classes often have practical implications — one course called “Food and Energy” has helped lay the groundwork for an ongoing project to create a Duke campus farm. A signatory of the ACUPCC, Duke has thirty-five buildings that are LEED-certified or seeking certification, and has committed to become carbon neutral by 2024. In fact, Duke has eliminated the use of coal on campus through the renovation of the campus steam plants as part of the university’s Climate Action Plan. As a result of this effort and other GHG reduction strategies, Duke has reduced overall GHG emissions 28 percent from a 2007 baseline.
