Campus Sustainability Report -- Indiana University 2007

The Indiana University Task Force on Campus Sustainability has released the Campus Sustainability Report, a collective work of more than 100 IU faculty, staff, and students who have been engaged, over the past six months, in developing a sustainability plan for the IU-Bloomington campus.

The Sustainability Task Force, convened in March 2007 by Vice President Terry Clapacs, was charged with assessing the current state of sustainability of the IUB campus, developing a set of campus sustainability indicators, identifying key areas of concern, and establishing a framework for a long-term sustainability plan.

This report is the product of that six-month effort. It represents an ambitious plan for addressing broad issues of campus sustainability, including academic initiatives, campus energy use, environmental quality and land use, resource use and recycling, transportation, food, and the built environment.

122 pages (4.1mb); available online as a PDF document through the resource link below.
