Campus Environmental Policies
In 1990 UB's Environmental Task Force (ETF) of the UB was organized. One of its primary tasks was the development of campus environmental policies. Generally, these policies were drafted and refined by the ETF in consultation with campus organizations and decision-making bodies. The air conditioning and heating policies were developed by an energy policy committee with participation from University Facilities, the office of the Senior Vice President for University Services, and the office of the University Provost. All policies became official campus policy when approved by either UB President William Greiner or Senior Vice President Robert Wagner.

These policies are a step in the right direction. Implementation is another matter! Implementation relies on informed, voluntary cooperation by members of the University. We encourage all members of the UB community; administrators, faculty, students, and staff to support and help implement our environmental policies.
