Although sustainability touches all facets of the Trojan community year round, it becomes the focal point at USC every April in honor of Earth Month. Through the university-wide sustainability framework, Assignment: Earth, we come together all month long to shine an even brighter light on education, research, and operations that help bring about a healthier Earth.
At the Wrigley Institute for Environment and Sustainability, we’re especially excited for Earth Month on campus because it gives us the opportunity to elevate institute-affiliated voices and their important work, as well as partner with other departments, centers, and institutes to engage in wider conversations about what it means to care for our planet.
This April, we collaborated with USC Dornsife College, USC Office of Sustainability, USC Center for the Political Future, the Environmental Student Assembly, and more. We also shared exciting news about institute achievements and future directions. Read on for highlights from our Earth Month 2024!
