MCCCD Sustainability Meeting


Today a group of people from 7 of the 10 Maricopa County Community Colleges (Estrella Mountain, Gateway, Mesa, Paradise Valley, Phoenix, Rio Salado and Scottsdale) that are leaders in their colleges sustainability efforts gathered, to discuss what issues each of the colleges are facing as well as solution ideas to solve those problems. Some of the issues mentioned were lack of support from either Facilities departments or administration, as well as funding and staffing for sustainability programs. The group met at the Green Restaurant, an all vegan restaurant. The meeting will take place again in January most likely at a conference room at Rio Salado College, and from there on will be held on a monthly basis.
