Walk2Campus Goes Green

At its core, Walk2Campus is about sustainable living. Walking is a sustainable action - it eliminates the harmful effects of driving. But that's not enough. We've developed sustainable practices to add to our positive impact on the earth.

The Impact Of Our Choices

Building sustainable, environmentally responsible communities represents a mindset more than a destination. We strive to continually make environmentally appropriate decisions. The earth isn't going to save itself - we need every employee and resident of Walk2Campus to contribute.

We believe it's not just the large choices that can make a difference. Small, everyday decisions add up to make a large impact. Choose environmentally friendly cleaning supplies. Recycle. Monitor consumption of energy. As a company, we pledge to award those whom consume less and do more than their part in aiding our earth.
