  • Sustainability

    As a signatory of the ACUPCC, The Evergreen State College is focused on reducing its carbon footprint. In fact, it’s aiming for complete carbon neutrality on campus by 2020. The college has put an ambitious sustainability program together in order to achieve this goal, which includes annual carbon inventories, campus-wide composting and recycling, and an initiative to integrate sustainability across the curriculum. Environmental awareness and social justice values are inherent to the physical campus, community values, and the curriculum at Evergreen. The college also boasts multiple student groups focused on environmental issues and offers graduate fellowships in sustainability. Recent renovations of residential duplexes have incorporated multiple sustainable practices— from materials selection to waste diversion—as well as innovative heating and water conservation systems. All students, faculty, and staff at Evergreen receive free bus passes, which go a long way toward reducing campus-based vehicular pollution. The campus also has the first publicly funded LEED Gold building in Washington (with a wood floor that was recycled from a local junior high school’s gym), and the campus library’s roof was recently fitted with a 9-kilowatt solar panel system. Evergreen is also seeking LEED certification for its renovations. Thirty-five percent of the college’s energy consumption is derived from renewable sources, and 33 percent of food purchased for the cafeterias is from local and/or organic sources. A student green energy fee pays for the purchase of Renewable Energy Credits for 100 percent of the college's electricity and provides grant funding for student-initiated clean energy and resource conservation projects.
