The Sustainability Continuum: Rutgers’ Evolution to an Environmental Powerhouse

Sustainability on college and university campuses used to be relegated to recycling and a course or two on ethics. Once considered too vast or vague to be tackled, today’s forward-minded industries and universities are proving that, by taking small, meaningful steps – and engaging the right partners along the way – they can create a framework for sustainability that allows them to reach their goals, and evolve to a greener environment.

At leading institutions like Rutgers University, sustainability is not merely an operating principle; it has become integrated throughout the campus, from facilities to curriculum to research.  Sustainability at the university has mirrored the path within business, where it now can be found embedded in nearly every business practice and process
