Sustainability

Several sustainabilty initiatives have been developed by students, faculty, and staff at Colorado College over the past four decades. These groups are highly active in promoting sustainability at the campus, local, and regional levels. The work of these groups is frequently tied to the curricula of the Environmental Program to advance local environmental initiatives and maintain fresh perspectives in our courses.

Enact
EnAct, the oldest student group on campus, began after Earth Day 1970 and was influenced by the Colorado Springs Ecology Action group. EnAct serves as a forum to raise environmental and social awareness through research, education, and action at CC and within the Colorado Springs community.

The Colorado College Sustainability Council
The college committee charged with promoting and coordinating campus sustainability initiatives.
