Climate Action Plan

Lane Community College’s first Climate Action Plan was approved by the Board of Education in 2011. An update to the plan was published in 2018. The Climate Action Plan is a living document that serves as the College guide to achieve carbon neutrality; the document will be updated every five years. 

In, 2018 the College joined the We Are Still In coalition.
