Campus Environmental Sustainability Team

In August 2009, the Campus Environmental Sustainability Team (CEST) became an official NC State Administrative Advisory Committee charged the following setting the direction for  campus sustainability through strategic planning; creating Working Groups that allow participation in the decision-making process by anyone on campus; and providing monitoring, communication and accountability for adherence to the Sustainability Strategic Plan and related commitments.

Although members are appointed, CEST was structured so that any person could participate in the decision-making through eight Working Groups, which were formed around the focus areas established in the 2006 Campus Environmental Sustainability Assessment: Academics and Research, Community and Culture, Buildings, Energy and Water, Land Use, Materials and Purchasing, Transportation, Waste Reduction and Recycling.
