Second Point of Distinction
Return of the Natives and the Habitat Restoration Trust
A brief description of the second program/initiative/accomplishment:
CSUMB has established a trust to fund tree planting. When outside agencies (such as Pacific Gas and Electric or local water agencies, need to remove trees to complete necessary safety improvements they are now required to pay the campus a set amount to replace each tree removed 2:1. Those funds are used by a campus program, Return of the Natives, which then grows trees and plants them on campus. This will support the campus's core sustainability goal of achieving carbon neutrality.
