campus sustainability

As people across the globe celebrate Earth day April 22, Washington University in St. Louis recognizes its sustainability achievements over the past five years and lays out its sustainability goals for the next five years.

Try to imagine an environmentally friendly science lab that reduces, reuses and recycles. That’s the challenge posed by the second annual Olin Sustainability Case Competition at Washington University in St. Louis. Students who devise the best plan for green labs will be seeing green — a $5,000 first prize — when the winners are announced in February.
