WELCOME
Thank you for visiting UWSP's Sustainability Website. In the
fall of 2007, Chancellor Bunnell created the Sustainability
Task Force to achieve the goals set forth in the
Chancellor's Climate Commitment as well as other campus
sustainability issues.
Short Term Goals:
- Evaluate the sustainability initiatives set forth by
the UWSP Sustainability Committee and determine which
should continue and which should be phased out.
- Select at least two of the tangible actions from the
ACUPCC Implementation Guide by November 15, 2007 and
create a plan to have them implemented by 2009.
- Complete a greenhouse gas inventory by September,
2008 as outlined in the ACUPCC Implementation Guide.
- Establish a climate neutrality action plan and take
some immediate steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
- Make UWSP’s climate action plan, inventory, and
progress reports publicly available. Submit yearly
reports to me.
Long Term:
- Identifying methods to integrate sustainability into
the curriculum
- Develop a climate action plan and initiate two or
more of the seven tangible actions described in the
Commitment by September 15, 2009.
