A new VCU map with a focus on sustainability will help visitors
locate recycling containers and solar trash compactors, parking
areas for bikes or scooters, and neighborhood restaurants that
serve locally grown produce or vegetarian meals.
Virginia Commonwealth University's Sustainable
Communities Institute is putting the map together and is
seeking help from VCU students, faculty, staff and alumni in
determining which sites should be placed on the map.
The new Virginia
Commonwealth University Green Map will serve as an
interactive inventory of economic, natural, social and cultural
assets linked to sustainability on both campuses.
Along with streets, buildings and major attractions, the map
includes sites that demonstrate the university's commitment to
sustainability.
