A brief summary of papers, guides, presentations, and other resources the institution has developed to share their sustainability experience with other institutions:
The University of Minnesota is engaged in several inter-campus collaboration efforts on sustainability.
The E3 Conference is an increasingly successful annual conference presented by the University of Minnesota Initiative for Renewable Energy and the Environment. It is an opportunity for researchers, legislators, business and nonprofit leaders, and students to share ideas and information about renewable energy in the Midwest.
Building Research Information Data Gathering Exchange(BRIDGE) is a tool created by the University of Minnesota Center for Sustainable Building Research to create a continuously evolving knowledge base for building projects. Post Occupancy Building Evaluations are conducted and the resulting information is made available to BRIDGE participants. The increasing library of information allows agencies the opportunity to learn from others' mistakes and successes, so future building projects will operate at the highest performance level possible.
The names of local, state, regional, national, and other campus sustainability organizations or consortia in which the institution participates and/or is a member:
The E3 Conference: St. Anthony Falls Laboratory and speakers from the University of California Berkeley, University of North Dakota, and the University of Tennessee.
BRIDGE: Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system and Minnesota State Agencies.
