Sustainability is a value of growing importance and urgency. The University of Redlands actively promotes sustainability by sourcing produce from the on-campus S.U.R.F. Garden and through student and community collaboration. Students are able to apply their classroom knowledge to spread awareness and implement climate change mitigation and adaptation methods. University groups, events, and organizations advancing climate action include:
SEA
Students for Environmental Action Club
The Students for Environmental Action (S.E.A.) club aims to progress the University and the local community toward a greener and more sustainable future. The club hosts weekly meetings to discuss current events, listen to guest speakers, and share tips on how to be more eco-friendly.
S.U.R.F
Sustainable university of Redlands Farm
The S.U.R.F. Garden promotes local growing practices, reduces the University's carbon footprint, and offers students the chance to grow crops and earn community engagement credit.
