As institutions dedicated to the research and education of a healthy, prosperous and sustainable future for all of society, colleges and universities are ideal leaders in addressing the issue of climate change. By engaging institutions to implement solutions to climate change, ECSU and the Institute for Sustainable Energy seek to expand the role of schools at every level of the climate change discourse, reduce emissions, and establish a network of Connecticut universities and communities working together toward a common goal. Perhaps most importantly, in acting to decrease their impact on the climate, colleges and universities can serve as learning laboratories whereby the campuses are "learning by doing", with broad implications for society.
