A Green Campus refers to an educational institution’s commitment to sustainability and environmentally friendly practices on its grounds and operations. This concept encompasses initiatives aimed at reducing the ecological footprint of the campus, which can include the implementation of energy-efficient buildings, waste reduction programs, sustainable transportation options, and the promotion of ecological awareness among students and staff. Green Campuses often feature green spaces, gardens, and renewable energy sources, as well as encourage recycling and reduced consumption of resources. The goal is to create a healthier, more sustainable environment for students and employees, while also serving as a model for sustainability practices in the broader community. The Green Campus movement often aligns with global efforts to promote environmental stewardship and combat climate change.
