Sustainability Strategic Plan
Pomona College's sustainability strategic plan, SAVE: Sustainable Action Visible Effects, outlines goals and strategies for achieving ambitious sustainability goals and for reaching carbon neutrality by 2030. SAVE aligns the work and direction of The Board of Trustees, the President, the President's Advisory Committee on Sustainability, and the Pomona community.
Sustainability Dashboard
The SAVE sustainability strategic plan has nine key categories with 2030 goals for creating and managing a sustainable campus community. Three categories are highlighted below: climate, energy and water. These goals are updated monthly to show current progress. View our SAVE Annual Report to see goals, progress, and initiatives from all nine of our sustainability categories.
All goals are compared to a baseline from fiscal year 2014.
SAVE Annual Report
The Sustainability Office publishes a SAVE Annual Report every October to share updates on key initiatives and progress towards the goals. The report is designed by a team of summer student interns and is published via Tableau for a fully online, accessible and interactive experience. From the overview page, click on one of the nine key categories (like Climate or Energy) to view goal performance, data visualizations, and program updates.
