At Trinity College, we foster a community that is environmentally aware and applies principles of sustainability to daily operations, long-term planning, and academic life.
Trinity College’s strategic plan, Summit, calls for us to build on Trinity’s historic past to ensure a vibrant, sustainable future. As part of that goal, we are committed to embracing and promoting urban environmental sustainability as a fundamental value of the college.
Our Sustainability Action Plan is the culmination of a multi-year collaboration of students, faculty, and staff. The plan sets the college’s strategies and priorities to continue our sustainability efforts in the coming years. Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing today’s society. Our campus community has a shared responsibility to its individual members and as global citizens to support sustainability. Our Sustainability Action Plan provides a clear framework for our work ahead, the final draft of the plan can be viewed and here and downloaded here.
With projects like solar panels, composting, vehicle charging stations, and the fuel cell on campus, we are committed to incorporating sustainable practices into our Campus Operations. Learn more about completed and ongoing projects related to energy, dining, transportation, and waste.
Our faculty and students are at the forefront of making our campus a more sustainable and environmentally conscious place to live and study.
Sustainability is about creating a balance within ourselves and in the environment around us.
