Leadership Through Sustainability
At CNM, we strive to lead by example. We want all who attend CNM to be equipped with a strong sense of community and environmental stewardship, a broad understanding of climate challenges, and the knowledge and courage to take action in addressing them.
To help ensure a more sustainable future, CNM has set goals for reducing and reusing waste, reducing water and energy consumption, and reducing carbon emissions. We work collaboratively between departments and campuses with both faculty, staff, students, and community members to meet these goals.
