USU Eco Warriors

The USU Eco Warriors is a student volunteer program of the University Student Union that provides sustainability focused programs and events. The Eco Warriors provide education and entertainment to students about the importance of living a sustainable lifestyle and the effect it will have on our environment.

Our programs focus on educating students, staff, faculty & the community at large about sustainability initiatives on environmental management and human consumption to improve the quality of life not only for the present, but also for our future. Our program promotes sustainability in all aspects of life whether it be environmental, social, and economic areas for those that live, work, and study at California State University, Stanislaus.

Leading by example the University Student Union developed Eco Warriors to operate and educate in a sustainable manner, so sustainable concepts and ideals will be incorporated into our future. Upon achieving these goals through education and entertainment our populace, we can all work together to make California State University, Stanislaus an environmentally conscious campus.
