University of California - Initiatives

The UC recognizes that sustainability touches every aspect of a campus.  As such, 9 of the 10 UC campuses have formed a Chancellor’s Committee on Sustainability, charged with fostering inter-departmental and interdisciplinary collaboration.  This is essential to develop and execute sustainability plans, and to incorporate sustainability into the institutional mission of the university.

In addition to spreading knowledge within each campus, the University of California is providing important information to universities nationwide on developing green strategies and how to achieve goals.
