October 4-6 in Tempe, Arizona, at Arizona State U., now the largest university in the country in terms of students, the campus sustainability movement took off. The first annual conference of the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) drew more than 650 people, including more than 200 students. AASHE is less than a year old and already has more than 150 campuses as members. Check them out at AASHE. The big news is the Focus on the Future, a January 30, 2008, national event involving more than 1,000 campuses, with a daylong program dealing with global warming and the need for rapid movement to a “zero net growth” in carbon dioxide emissions. For this important meeting, Jerry Yudelson and associate Tom Buckholtz produced a White Paper, “Gain Impact. Save Time - The GIST of Campus Sustainability Planning” which introduces a new method for achieving results in sustainability for any campus or large organization.
