According to potlux website:
"Universities are at the forefront of environmental innovation; however, the communication mediums between them could be vastly improved. Potlux is a catalogue of ideas and a community of collegiate sustainability leaders. By sharing information and connecting with each other, Universities can adopt the best ideas into their sustainability platform and contact each other for support on how to accomplish this."
According to the invitation to contribute to Potlux:
"We invite you to share your college’s sustainability initiatives on Potlux by Monday, September 7, 2015. We’ve assembled a panel of students and environmental professionals (including Nobel Peace Prize share recipient Dr. Gary Yohe) to evaluate your school’s initiatives. Based on your uploaded content, we will select one college to be featured on the UNEP’s Sustainable Consumption and Production Clearinghouse. Together with your help, we plan to revolutionize the effectiveness of collegiate sustainability."
