Welcome to the Campus Sustainability Hub!

When we care about sustainability
we certainly DO care about the environment…!

But we never lose sight of:

People
Planet
Profit

Taken Together
Now, and Into the Future…!

This is the frame, from inside of which, we believe all choices should be made

Contextual Background

• Ramapo Green is a “brand” that was created some time before this entire initiative began.  This brand, Ramapo Green, was usurped for an idea we had at the back of our mind–and that was to infuse sustainability as a way of thinking and as a “worldview” through every single choice that is made within the College.
• A committee at the College was established when the College signed on to the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), in November 2007. 
• In 2010, the committee became the President’s Committee On Campus Sustainability (PCCS).
• This whole process grew into this Ramapo Green website, and culminated in a very particular articulation of what sustainability ought to mean.

Since its founding in 1969, Ramapo College of New Jersey has had a clear commitment to sustainability.  As the world around us has come to realize the importance of renewable energy, pollution control, the elimination of waste and the adoption of “green practices,” we have renewed our commitment to sustainability.

With the opening of Ramapo College’s Sharp Sustainability Education Center, the establishment of sustainability as a fundamental principle, and the signing of Second Nature’s Climate Commitment, Ramapo College continues to dedicate itself to creating a more sustainable campus.
