Building a Greener Illinois. Together.
Welcome to the Greener Campus Portal, where you can learn how to make your campus office, chapter, and events more sustainable — and receive a certificate for your efforts!
For Fall 2024, we have updated the Greener campus certification programs. Check out the new guides below!
The Certified Green Office Program is designed to identify simple, inexpensive actions you can take in your workspace to conserve energy, reduce waste, and promote sustainability.
Small actions make a big difference when many take those small actions. The Illinois Climate Action Plan (iCAP) outlines campus plans to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, and we believe everyone can play a part in achieving that goal through their day-to-day actions.

Event organizers can certify their events by committing to at least two actions from each of the following categories: accessibility, conservation, and community.
