Does the institution have a sustainability committee?:
The charter or mission statement of the committee or a brief description of the committee's purview and activities :
By empowering each employee to make his and her best possible contribution and through the pooling of their collective expertise, Durham College will take specific actions and implement new measures that will make us better environmental stewards and champions in the year ahead. We will:
Develop and implement programs to reduce the college’s energy consumption by five per cent this fiscal year;
Develop a campus-wide waste management plan that includes public awareness via education and participation; standardizing recycling stations; developing a tracking system; and participating in annual waste audits;
Introduce a Durham College ‘Green Team’ made up of employees from all areas of the organization. The team will be charged with developing and leading new initiatives that reduce the college’s carbon footprint and demonstrate green and sustainable practices; and
Ensure the Durham College Leadership and Academic Leadership teams become paperless, reducing the volume of paper generated for their meetings and operations.
