About VCSN

The Vermont Campus Sustainability Network is a network of Vermont colleges and universities, communities, individuals, businesses, state offices, and sustainability-related organizations. A project of the Vermont Campus Energy Group, VCSN promotes environmental awareness and action on Vermont’s campuses and within Vermont’s larger communities through the free exchange of information, focused education and events, creative collaborations, and specific projects and initiatives. We believe that Vermont’s campus communities have the knowledge, will, and resources to lead society-at-large to a more just, equitable, and environmentally sustainable future.

The Vermont Campus Sustainability Network receives funding from the Vermont Department of Public Service, Efficiency Vermont, Chittenden Solid Waste District, and receives in-kind support from Vermont Campus Compact.
