SUSTAINABILITY

The Sustainability and Climate Action Plan is the implementation plan for the first four goals of the Climate Change, Sustainability, and Resilience section of UCSC's Leading the Change Strategic Plan. Through an intensive stakeholder engagement process during the Leading the Change process and subsequent key partner engagements during the development of the Sustainability and Climate Action Plan, strategies are identified for each goal. When worked on over the next 5 years, these strategies will make meaningful progress towards achieving the ambitious Leading the Change goals. Each year new priority initiatives are developed based on progress from the previous year and new efforts to operationalize the strategies of the Sustainability and Climate Action Plan. Each fall, a progress report will share the results of the previous academic year's priority initiatives to keep the campus community informed and publish new priority initiatives for the upcoming year.
