Take Action

Sustainability is an enormous, but attainable, undertaking. We have some big challenges when it comes to creating a safe, just space for humanity, now and for the future, but it can be accomplished collectively.

These are just a few ideas to help you start thinking about how your actions can help impact sustainability efforts on the campus, in the classroom, and throughout the community:

You could follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, or subscribe to our newsletter to stay up-to-date on news and opportunities.

In the next five hours

Consider having a meal at our zero waste dinning halls; and taking alternative transportation to get there!

In the next five days

You could learn more about the Energy Challenge and ways to get involved; either by small changes you can take, or by volunteering for initiatives like the Campus Farm.

In the next five weeks

You could enroll in a sustainability course, or visit us at the E-House.

In the next five months

You could stroll through the Arboretum during all the different seasons to examine biodiversity, or join a working group to further sustainability on campus.

We want to hear from you

Whatever your goals are, contact us to see how we can help you sustain IU!

You are our environment. No man nor institution can be free from the influence of its surroundings.
