Get Involved

In 2012, Joseph M. McShane, S.J., president of Fordham University at the time, established the Sustainability Council. Through collaboration with independent sustainability consultants, the Council seeks to foster a University-wide discussion related to meeting the growing challenges of climate change by collaborating and developing partnerships and fostering initiatives. The Council, which consists of administrators, faculty, staff, students, and consultants, meets throughout the year to discuss keys issues such as improvements to recycling, University-wide energy and greenhouse gas reduction initiatives, and other sustainability efforts.
