The Yale Sustainability Pledge encourages an individual commitment to sustainability and demonstrates that you are not alone in taking strides to reduce your environmental impact — you stand with a community committed to sustainability. Yale has set a goal to obtain 2000 new and renewed commitments before the end of the academic year as a statement about sustainability on campus. With ideas for simple, yet meaningful, waste and energy reductions in your office, laboratory, dorm room or home, the Yale Sustainability Pledge substantiates individual commitment as a crucial step towards a sustainable campus. Show your commitment — pledge yourself to a sustainable lifestyle and a sustainable Yale.
