College Green Power Challenge

The Environmental Protection Agency has challenged colleges to buy green power. They have set up a webpage- 2006 College and University Green Power Challenge.


The EPA now buys 100% of its electricity needs from renewable resources. They are encouraging colleges to follow their lead with the challenge. The webpage is fun to follow the competition between athletic conferences. The Ivy League is leading the challenge. But why is Dartmouth, the Big Green, not showing any green power?

This is part of the EPA's Green Power Partners program. Check it out and see if you can get an organization to join up. It is a great program and helps support organizations in becoming more environmentally responsible. Ask companies you do business with if they are green partners.
