about

Sustainable Utah is a forum for sharing sustainability stories, creating a vision, and working toward a more sustainable future for our campus and the broader community. It is sponsored by the Sustainability Office at the University of Utah and run by students.

This blog is intended to provide discussion on the many diverse aspects of sustainability and environmental issues.  Storytelling is an essential part of creating a culture of sustainability shared by an entire campus and surrounding communities. By sharing our widely varying experiences and knowledge surrounding these topics we can facilitate active and responsible citizenship in the realms of human health, environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic progress.
