Campus Sustainability Performance: Introducing Ecological Regional Analysis To Advance Meaningful Impact, Shana Weber, Julie Newman

NECSC Conference 2015

In this second session of a three-part NECSC conference series called "Bioregional Metrics, Decision Making & Assessment" the presenters will delve into the current state of bioregional assessment and analysis. Synopses of research-based understandings drawn from a bioregional assessment of AASHE-STARS data, LEED assessments, and other bioregional data will be be presented along with recommendations for how such understanding can enhance the impact of collective efforts. The STARS analysis is based on a paper current under peer review co-authored by Shana Weber (Princeton), Julie Newman (MIT), and Adam Hill (Ivy+ SOAR Collaborative).
