Sustainability
Lighten the Load Environmental Initiative: Through participation in the Lighten the Load environmental initiative, the laundry rooms on campus are carbon neutral! The Lighten the Load initiative is designed to raise environmental awareness and to offset 100% of the carbon emissions from the laundry rooms on campus. Over 21 million pounds of CO2 emissions from participating campuses across the county have been offset through an investment in methane destruction projects provided by Carbonfund.org (All offset projects meet ACUPCC standards). So every time you use the campus laundry facilities you can feel good about being clean today and green tomorrow.
