Environmental Wellness
Environmental wellness inspires us to live a lifestyle that is respectful of our surroundings and promotes interaction with nature and your personal environment.
Campus Beautification
The purpose of the Campus Beautification Committee is to beautify the CSUB campus
through education and example with the prideful participation from the University
community.
Edible Garden
The mission of the CSUB Edible Garden is to increase the campus community's food security
rate and provide educational opportunities that emphasize student learning by researching,
developing, and advancing sustainable foods. The CSUB Edible Garden will be strategically
positioned to provide opportunities for students and community members to learn about
food systems and grow sustainable foods at the CSU Bakersfield Campus.
Runner Ride
Runner Ride is a free bike share program available to all CSUB students and employees
with a valid CSUB ID. This program provides bikes availability to users on a daily
basis and is ideal for short distance trips around CSUB and the community.
Sustainability
CSU Bakersfield and other state institutions are major consumers of energy and natural
resources. For this reason, it is important for the campus community to take tangible
steps to enhance its environmental sustainability. The university has been committed
to reducing its carbon footprint, most notably by building all-new campus construction
to the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED Silver standard or equivalent and only purchasing
Energy-Star certified appliances. Click here for more information.
