Sustainability map or tour
Yes
A brief description of the sustainability walking map or tour:
Campus tours take participants through our four campuses while describing our number of green buildings, which seek efficiencies in energy, water, and materials use, through better design and construction, more efficient operations, and proper materials re-use and disposal at the end of a building’s life cycle. Tours are adjusted for length and interest.
Sustainability campus tours are offered through a number of ways:
Individuals, non-profits, and classes have been conducting their own tours on campus using the map, a self-guided tour document, and videos to take independent walking tours.
The Campus Tours office provides regular tours of campus buildings. The Office of Sustainability provides campus tours staff with training, scripts, resources and maps for the incorporation of green building features in their regular tours.
The Office of Sustainability provides green building tours for groups. Over the years this included tours for professional associations, classes, media, businesses, conferences, and others. For a guided tour contact the Office of Sustainability via email rethink@dal.ca.
