U.S. colleges and universities are increasingly deploying solar arrays and other forms of renewable energy. At College of the Atlantic, one focus is on teaching students how to participate in local, renewable energy economies, from the ground up.
Sierra, the national magazine of the Sierra Club, names College of the Atlantic the greenest college in the country in its 10th annual “Cool Schools” ranking. The school jumps 15 spots from last year’s ranking of 16 to occupy the #1 slot “by a landslide.”
A new initiative aims to bring economic, social, and environmental sustainability to communities across Maine.
