Campus Sustainability
Coordinating BGSU’s efforts to be a more sustainable institution
One of the main goals for the Office of Campus Sustainability is to encourage students to become more sustainable in their daily lives. The Green Falcon Pledge will only take a few minutes to complete, but it can introduce you to small changes you can implement in your daily routine that will make your time here at BGSU more sustainable.
Take the Green Falcon Pledge
The Office of Campus Sustainability operates within Campus Operations to fulfill three overarching goals established through BGSU's "Climate Action Plan" and "Strategic Plan" to achieve institutional carbon-neutrality by the year 2040.
Three Sustainability Goals
Progressing Forward
13 LEED Certified Buildings
Following BGSU's Climate Action Plan, all new construction & major renovations pursued by BGSU will strive for LEED Silver certification.
7 EV Charging Stations
The stations were paid for through a grant from Clean Fuels Ohio and the U.S. Department of Energy, with BGSU's Student Green Initiatives Fund matching the grant to provide enough funding for the stations.
18 Green Certified Offices
The Green Office Certification program encourages departments and offices to engage in environmentally sustainable actions within their office.
79 Approved Green Fund Proposals
To date, close to $2 million of sustainability projects have been funded on campus, with an impact of reducing waste, reducing emissions or sustainable education.
