Environmental Club

Jul 29, 2024 | Green Initiatives

The Upper School Environmental Club is a space for those looking to build upon D-E’s sustainability efforts. The club recently established the “Net Zero Initiative” in 2023 to help the school transition to carbon-neutral practices. Additionally, the club works in partnership with the US Garden Club to maintain and improve the compost system. Each year for Earth Week, the EVC plans a number of events to celebrate the Earth and to educate the community on climate change. The club takes “field trips” around campus to learn about how the compost system and the solar panels on Campus Center work to help the environment. The club is also responsible for updating the D-E Green page with sustainability-related school news.
