A brief description of the institution’s sustainability partnerships with the local community:
Laurier has recently partnered with Sustainable Waterloo, a local non-profit organization that helps businesses in the Region of Waterloo reduce their carbon emissions. Sustainable Waterloo’s Regional Carbon Initiative facilitates voluntary target setting and reductions of carbon emissions in organizations across Waterloo Region. Laurier was recognized as an official observing organization at Sustainable Waterloo’s Evening of Recognition on March 23, 2010. Observing organizations have access to a carbon accounting tool which Laurier will use to assess its carbon emissions related to energy consumption, air travel, water consumption and waste generation. In addition, two members of the Laurier Community sit on the Sustainable Waterloo Board of Directors.
