Council for Sustainable Futures

The Council for Sustainable Futures (CSF) is the California State University Stanislaus Council dedicated to the development, growth, and institutionalization of sustainability initiatives on campus and in partnership with the local community. The CSF fosters awareness, understanding, and a culture of sustainability on campus.

The Stan State Green Office Warriors (GROW) program is designed to guide you through the process of creating a more sustainable workplace. GROW is structured as a point-based system, from Leaf 1 to Leaf 3, aligned with our University Strategic Plan through the thoughtful stewardship of resources and support of the university's commitment to creating a green campus.

Buildings are generally the largest user of energy and the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions on campuses and they use significant amounts of potable water. Institutions can design, build, and maintain buildings in ways that provide a safe and healthy indoor environment for inhabitants while simultaneously mitigating the building’s impact on the outdoor environment.
