Section 17: Sustainability
| This campus is awful for recycling. We need to be recycling at the campus level, they need to get involved. |
| Solar energy and wind energy for campus buildings. Green buildings. |
| Green buildings - non traditional methods of power/light/heat/etc. |
| Use bio-engineering to reduce heating/cooling costs. |
| Noticing the changes that have occurred over the last 100 years and the progress we've made in technology and architecture, it is almost blindingly obvious the best technology is yet to come. Therefore it is only wise to consider such advances like renewable energy to be self sufficient because that is how Montana originated, through sustainability and courage. |
| Efficient heating/alternate energy. Develop fiscally responsible alternative energy. Increase the insulation of current buildings to reduce costs. |
| Environmentally friendly campus in all aspects, regardless of costs. |
| Recycling - at least aluminum on the campus and in the dorms. |
| A real recycling effort on campus is needed. |
| Recycling bins in buildings. |
| Recycling - I'd like to think that we love the planet. The Recycling Club should not have to tote thousands of cans away on a bicycle. |
| For My Kids: "Green" energy efficient campus. |
| I've seen garbage cans at other schools with recycling (cans/bottles) attached. Replace all garbage cans with these. |
| Develop a responsible conservative water management plan. i.e. efficient sprinkler systems. Don't water sidewalks use conservative techniques. |
| Lead the sustainable campus movement! Green dorms, responsible energy (solar, wind), organic/local food options in dorms and SUB. Green purchasing program - cleaning supplies, materials used, carpets, furniture. |
| MSU should lead, not follow in creating a sustainable community. Green buildings, farm to school food projects, alternative energy. |
| Green university - energy efficiency, public transit, recycling. |
| Food services all over campus need to use recycled products and have ability for people to separate their trash into aluminum, plastic, etc. |
| Sustainability and recycling needs to be stepped up. |
| Watering conservation should be practiced. Don't sprinkle sidewalks and streets, or water till it's soggy. |
| Xeriscape entire campus are at least a portion. Use as a boundary or keep some areas as "parks". |
| Use motion detecting switches to help save power. |
| Build and grow sustain ably, with respect for the community, the environment and the learning process. |
| Alternative energy - focus on alt. energy and our energy problems are not going away. Sun is a great resource for Bozeman. A walking campus with public transport. |
| Bozeman is a city that's expanding rapidly and the University is a pillar. It's a responsibility of the university to promote and exemplify sustainable development before resources become scarce. |
| Water conservation on campus. Don't water sidewalks and streets. |
