Campus Ecology Support Since its inception in 1989, the National Wildlife Federation’s Campus Ecology Program has earned respect as a national leader in the campus sustainability and climate solutions movement. The program has long recognized the opportunities for higher education to lead society to a clean, just and prosperous energy future. Over nearly two decades, the program’s tools, training and expertise have evolved to serve students, faculty and staff in a wide range of capacities. Its publications, workshops, fellowship programs, web-based resources and talented staff based throughout the country have empowered students and inspired environmental stewardship on hundreds of campuses nationwide and embedded environmental values in campus operations and curriculum. Equally important, its hands-on assistance with energy efficiency and conservation projects has led to significant financial savings in energy costs and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Working partnerships with the coordinating body of the youth climate movement, the Energy Action Coalition, Clean Air-Cool Planet, AASHE (Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education), APPA (Leadership in Educational Facilities), SCUP (Society for College and University Planning) and other organizations give Campus Ecology a strong national voice. Campus Ecology has worked closely with many types of schools: public and private, large and small, community and technical colleges. As a result, it has a breadth of experience, ideas and resources to offer a diverse array of colleges and universities. Campus Ecology also has the capacity for national outreach with staff established in four main regions across the country, the Midwest (based out of Ann Arbor, MI), the Southeast (Atlanta, GA), the Southwest (Austin, TX) and the NWF Headquarters in Reston, VA. |
