Earth Month 2024

April is Earth Month! Celebrate like a green Tiger by immersing yourself in fun field trips, attending energizing programs and speakers and taking part in impactful outreach programs to ground yourself in our vibrant community.

Sustainability at Mizzou

Campus Sustainability is a holistic enterprise that cannot be accomplished by just one department, organization or office. It is a collaborative effort that relies on support from all academic departments, campus operations and students.

Sustain Mizzou

As Mizzou’s student-run environmental program, Sustain Mizzou provides opportunities to make a difference around campus and the Columbia community. Any Tiger can find a place in Sustain Mizzou — whether you’re exploring new interests or want to take your passion for sustainability to the next level. Check out ways to get involved below and learn more about upcoming events!
