What are the Sustainable Spaces programs?

Sustainable Spaces programs at the University of Washington (formerly Green Certification Programs) seek to reduce the University's environmental impact by inspiring and supporting sustainable efforts by students, faculty, and staff. The programs help UW's offices, labs, and official student groups on all of our campuses:

  1. Gauge how sustainably they are currently operating
  2. Identify specific ways they can operate more sustainably
  3. Gain recognition for the good work they are already doing

The programs accomplish this by providing resources and information that offices, labs, and student groups can use to operate more sustainably. 

Please note: these programs are only available for UW- and UW-affiliated offices and labs.
