​​Green Campus is a student group that operates under Humboldt State University's
​Offices Of Sustainability and Clubs & Activities.
Our project coordinators, interns and volunteers are all HSU students who work on sustainability projects each semester to improve infrastructure and policy on campus, save energy and water on campus, and educate our community about sustainable daily living.

Our mission is to improve environmental sustainability at HSU by: 
- achieving measurable energy and water savings;
- educating the campus community about sustainability;
- encouraging daily behavioral changes that benefit the environment;
- preparing future professionals in environmental fields; 
- and collaborating with other sustainability organizations on campus.
The Month of September:  Light
Tips to Save Energy
  • Turn off the lights when you leave a room.
  • Spend time and do homework outside or in an area lit naturally.
  • Have class outside, if possible. 
  • Dim adjustable lights to lower brightness.
  • Use ambient lighting such as lamps and string lights.
  • Switch to LED light bulbs.
  • Use shear curtains to let natural light in and not let heat escape.
  • Turn off your headlights when you park.
  • Take time to appreciate the sunshine!
