My group and I went to the Academic & Student Recreation Center. Before we went inside, we quickly read the description included for the location on the Self-Guided Sustainability Tour, and two of the things we found out were that all wooden materials used for the location are sustainably harvested and/or certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, and that the track above the basketball courts is made from recycled materials.
This feature of sustainable materials used to build things for the rec center has made PSU more sustainable in that the campus is actively reusing materials rather than letting those materials be wasted. This track is being utilized and appreciated everyday by many campus rec members, and in fact might actually be my favorite part of the rec center. It is very well built, and very well designed.
Hope in a Hotter Time
