The efforts of everyone at Stanford – students, faculty, and staff – are crucial to creating a more sustainable campus. Riding a bike instead of driving, carpooling, recycling, turning off unnecessary lights, making double-sided copies, keeping the thermostat low in the winter and high in the summer – these are among the simple but meaningful acts that reduce our environmental footprint. All of these individual contributions can be logged and tracked through Cardinal Green App. Through the Cardinal Green App, you can receive custom recommendations relevant to your lifestyle, track your progress, and be rewarded for your efforts. As an indicator of your lifestyle, you grow a virtual tree in the App, which will require regular watering. Water points are awarded for the successfully completed sustainable actions suggested by the App.
