UNCG Sustainability

The mission of UNCG’s Office of Sustainability is to encourage and support the development and implementation of sustainable practices in administrative units of the university and create a meaningful link between academics and operations that supports use of the campus as a teaching laboratory.

At UNCG, we define sustainability as the enduring interconnectedness of social equity, the environment, economy, and aesthetics. We believe this interconnectedness provides a foundation from which to discover, implement, and enrich sustainable principles and practices that promote and instill justice, civility, and grace in our communities.
