Task Force Report

The Sustainability Task Force report builds on the sustainability goals outlined by President Ann Weaver Hart and provides preliminary recommendations. It addresses sustainability as "protecting and managing our natural resources so they are available for future generations." 

The Sustainability Task Force has concluded that a balanced approach to sustainability requires Temple to respect the environmental, economic, social, and communal aspects of its choices to ensure that Temple designs affordable, practical, and forward-looking programs. To achieve this balance, Temple must find new and more effective ways of collaborating with all of its internal constituents, with neighboring communities, and with regional partners.
