A Survey of Green University: Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract

Universities can play a significant role in forging the path to a sustainable future. By their nature, universities are focused on research, teaching and services whereas institutions tasks are to provide training to the world's future leaders. As universities’ mission and activities are not directly tied to financial or political gain, they have the capacity to test systems and technologies, and to advance innovative solutions for global challenges in ways that companies and municipalities cannot. Academic staff members are generally considered authorities and have the capacity to actively contribute to solutions at various stages and levels. As we demonstrate to the public, staff, and students that we are responsible and willing to take the lead in creating a more sustainable tomorrow. In other words, we have the ability to manifest sustainability not only in theory, but also in practice which can apply in university campuses.
