Sustainability

Cornell's Office of Environmental Compliance and Sustainability and Center for a Sustainable Future leverage the strengths of an Ivy League university dedicated to a Land Grant Mission. We are determined to make the Big Red and Planet Earth, places where all generations can prosper.

Here, among New York's Finger Lakes, the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) peoples, who cared for the region before Cornell, live by a similar principle: In every decision we must consider the impact on the seventh generation.
