Sustainability at JCC
Sustainability is based on one simple principle: everything that we need for our survival and well-being depends, either directly or indirectly, on our natural environment.
At Jamestown Community College, we are committed to sustainability and environmental stewardship. That's why we've developed an environmental science program and built our Science Center to meet LEED Gold certification standards.

Green Man The adventures of Green Man continue as he faces off against his archnemesis: The Litterbug. Earthfest 2012, celebrating Earth Day, was held on April 25. Members of the JCC community and the community at large joined together in celebration of the Earth and learned more about how to be better stewards of the wonders that nature provides. The event was sponsored by JCC's Earth Awareness Club and the college program committee of the JCC Faculty Student Association. We relocated ten mature sugar maple trees to accommodate site preparation for a new residence hall. Get a glimpse of what went on at the Eco Warriors summer camp on the Cattaraugus County campus. Kids spent a week learning about the environment and how to protect it and then ended the week with a presentation for their parents. |
