Penn Engineering Green Team
The Penn Engineering Green Team is a cross-disciplinary team of staff and students representing each department across Engineering, who work to raise awareness about sustainability and change behavior within the Penn community. In collaboration with Penn Sustainability, we are committed to supporting Penn’s Climate Action Plan 3.0 goals. Partnering with faculty, students and staff within Engineering and across the university, we focus on conserving energy, minimizing waste, green purchasing practices, and sustainable education. Our goal is to energize and engage the community about sustainability and the environment. The team hosts events with distinguished industry leaders and faculty, and supports student sustainability initiatives. The group was formed in 2011 by Leandra Davis, the former Senior Director of Planning | Design | Construction, and we continue to grow and collaborate with departments across the university.
For questions about sustainability at Penn Engineering, or if you are interested in joining, please email Diane Panaritis.
