Higher Education - The Vibrant Epicenter of a Sustainable Future

Tork, an SCA brand, is pleased to present this free white paper to American School & University readers.

Sustainability is a movement that continues to sweep through our society in iterative waves of increasing depth and breadth. With sustainability embracing the principles of environmental stewardship, social justice, human and ecosystem health and wellbeing, colleges and universities are at the forefront of raising the bar for how we define the issues and tackle the problems. In some cases, initiatives are student-driven, while in others, university administrations are taking the lead. As a result, colleges and universities are in many ways the trend setters in this field, defining sustainability more holistically.

Learn how the higher education sector can more effectively respond to the increasing pressure driven by student expectations, compete with peer schools, direct resources and ultimately incorporate solutions into daily practices to keep ahead of this ever expanding wave. Josh Radoff, co-founder and Principal of YR&G Sustainability and member of the Tork® Green Hygiene Council, provides a look at the universities leading the pack and offers tips for ramping up sustainability initiatives on campus.
