2019-24 Climate and Sustainability Action Plan 3.0 (CSAP 3.0)
Penn's Climate and Sustainability Action Plan with information on actions to acheive the University's goals for 2019 to 2024.
Student Eco-Reps
Each year, a cohort of 10-20 Penn sophomores, juniors, and seniors are selected to participate in the Eco-Reps program. Students meet weekly with staff in Penn’s Sustainability Office and work in small teams throughout the year to develop in-depth projects aimed at solving environmental challenges on campus. Initiatives may focus on topics ranging from energy conservation, waste and recycling, water conservation, academic initiatives, local food systems, environmental literacy, and more.
All of Eco-Reps projects involve a strong hands-on component and focus on creating solutions through analyzing the current problem, developing small-scale pilots, and then focusing on broader implementation. Students are asked to bring an entrepreneurial spirit and a sense of willingness and motivation to each project in order to help them succeed.
The Eco-Reps program is organized by Penn’s Sustainability Office within the Division of Facilities and Real Estate Services.
Applications for the 2024-2025 cohort are currently being accepted. Interested students are encouraged to review the two opportunities and apply as soon as possible:

ESAC has been developing and executing Penn’s climate and sustainability goals since the signing of the Presidents’ Climate Commitment in 2007.
ESAC subcommittees meet bimonthly to advance goals and tactics outlined in CSAP

departments.
