  • Sustainability

    Nestled near the base of the Wastach Mountains, the Wildcats of Weber State University are at the summit of environmentally friendly initiatives. In addition to officially setting a goal for carbon neutrality, Weber State University’s Climate Action Plan—freely available online—addresses other sustainability initiatives such as water conservation, alternative transportation, and waste reduction. Interested in one of Weber’s most unique projects? The compressed natural gas station, located at the south part of campus, services hybrid vehicles for the university and its neighbors. Interested in more? The university is in the process of upgrading its vast system of steam tunnel pipes to make them more energy and water efficient. Expansion joints and steam traps will be replaced, isolation valves will be added, and the entire network of pipes will be re-insulated with aerogel, a high performance thermal insulator that has been used by NASA (!) to insulate the Mars Rover and spacesuits. Plus, the campus has begun upgrading all interior and exterior campus lighting to high-efficiency fluorescents, CLFs, and LEDs in some applications. The two newest buildings on campus, Elizabeth Hall and the Hurst Center are LEED Silver-certified. Students can pursue graduate certificates in environmental sustainability for business or degrees in applied environmental geoscience; undergraduates in the geography department have the option to follow an environmental studies emphasis track. Weber State firmly believes feedback and accountability are vital. To that end, Weber State University’s Energy & Sustainability Office produces an annual sustainability report that provides details on the university’s progress towards meeting the various sustainability goals. Indeed, “WSU Takes Action!”
