Sustainability at Colorado Mountain College

In 2009, CMC signed onto the American College and University President’s Climate Commitment. The college's current Climate Action Plan and Sustainability Action Plan direct the college to reducing the greenhouse gas emissions by 12.5% every 5 years until carbon neutrality is reached in the year 2050.

Carbondale Sustainability

  • The Carbondale Lappala Center has upgraded parking lot lights to LED from metal halide lighting. This upgrade, combined with creative building scheduling, has reduced the carbon footprint to put it on a path to meet the College’s obligation to the President’s Climate Commitment.
  • Along with a sustainable garden, the Carbondale site houses a beehive. The bees and garden are used to reinforce the sustainable culture in Carbondale.
  • A bottle fill station is located onsite, providing chilled, filtered water for reusable bottles.
