Sustainable Stanford Details
Sustainable Stanford is a university-wide effort to reduce our environmental impact, preserve resources, and show sustainability in action. We're determined to lead in researching, teaching, and practicing environmental sustainability. Our vision: create a healthier environment now and richer possibilities for generations to come. Dedication to outreach and a culture of innovation have been central to Stanford's mission since its founding in 1891, when Jane and Leland Stanford exhorted university leaders to "promote the public welfare by exercising an influence on behalf of humanity and civilization." That sense of purpose drives our commitment to incorporating sustainability practices and thinking into every aspect of campus life. In pursuing its academic mission, Stanford University is committed to being a leader in research, teaching and action (institutional practice) of environmental sustainability.
