NYU's Sustainability Task Force has released its 2007-08 Annual Report and Recommendations.
The report highlights environmental initiatives and policies from every sector of the administration, and includes a new set of recommendations to further advance NYU along the path toward sustainability.
Learn about our priorities for the coming year, and

As a private university in the public service, NYU has a responsibility to embed environmental sustainability as a core value of its academic mission and administrative operations.
Sustainability means bringing together diverse segments of the NYU community - students, faculty, administrators, staff, parents, alumni, neighbors, and beyond - to solve environmental problems and improve everyone's quality of life.
