Everything green and in between at SUNY Purchase.
Sustainability at SUNY Purchase
The College recognizes its privilege as part of the State University of New York system and consistently builds on exemplary sustainable operations in compliance with New York State Executive Order 22.
Sustainability is a complex concept that includes the interdisciplinary practices of social equity, economic vitality, and environmentalism to ensure ecological balance for all. SUNY Purchase utilizes the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) global framework to promote green alternative operations.
While maintaining New York State environmental goals, SUNY Purchase continually implements institution-wide green initiatives that empower community members and campus operations to stay eco-minded.
