Have a great idea how to make your campus more sustainable? Apply for the Chancellor's Green Fund Grant by March 31st. This grant enables members of the UC Berkeley campus community to undertake projects that will create a greener, more environmentally sustainable campus -- while saving resources and money in the process.

At the Annual UC Berkeley Sustainability Summit in April, the Green Fund provides one-time funding to projects led by students, faculty and staff which help move Cal toward environmental sustainability. This funding is given on a competitive basis, and many projects are proposed based on the opportunities identified in the 2005 Campus Sustainability Assessment.

Examples of projects funded in 2007 include creating sustainable practices in Wurster Hall's design studios, an electricity-efficient model at I-House, creating multi-compartment recycling receptacles for dorm rooms and many more.

Apply to make your campus more sustainable - applications are due March 31st.

The Chancellor's Advisory Committee wants to recognize the work done by individuals and groups of faculty, students, and staff on campus with a Sustainability Award. Awards will be presented at this year's Fifth Annual Sustainability Summit on Monday April 21st, 2008. Without their ingenuity and hard work, we would not be fortunate to have a multitude of sustainability programs on campus.

Applications are due April 4th, 2008. Please view the attached document for more information and the actual application. Direct your questions to Steve Maranzana, stevemar@berkeley.edu.
