  • Sustainability

    Whoever said “everything’s bigger in Texas” wasn’t just talking about food and hair. Want big? How about three recently-completed 100-kilowatt community-scale turbines? Or an energy efficiency upgrade resulting in $3.2 million per year in savings? The University of North Texas is clearly making big strides when it comes to sustainability. The university has developed a Climate Action Plan in accordance with ACUPCC requirements that covers everything from establishing a policy that promotes green purchasing and public transportation and requires all new campus construction be built to LEED Silver-certified. Prime examples of new LEED-certified buildings: Apogee Stadium (LEED Platinum) and the Business Leadership Building (LEED Gold). To date, the university of North Texas has completed all but two of the tangible actions outlined by ACUPCC, making it the leading green university in the state and placing UNT in the top 17 percent of green-compliant universities nationwide. Forty percent of the energy on campus is derived from renewable sources, and 43 percent of the buildings on campus have undergone energy-related retrofits. UNT has partnered with Schneider Electric to develop an energy savings plan that will reduce energy consumption by 17 percent and water consumption by 15 percent. In 2010, the study body voted to approve a campus Green Fund that accepts proposals for projects from students, faculty, and staff. The Green Fund has since funded projects such as a Natural Dye Garden and Rain Harvesting System, a pilot bike share program, and the installation of Dyson Hand Dryers on campus. The campus is posting strong numbers when it comes to recycling: in the past few years, the university has recycled nearly 1,000 tons of waste materials. UNT offers graduate degrees in environmental science and public administration and management. It houses the first PhD in environmental ethics in the country, now considered the best in the nation.
