Greek Eco-Reps

The Greek Eco-Reps program is an environmental leadership program, open to all fraternity and sorority members, that focuses on raising awareness of environmental issues and encouraging sustainable practices on Penn’s campus.

Select students will inform their chapters on important environmental topics and develop educational events and initiatives to support the University’s environmental goals and Climate Action Plan. Initiatives will focus on energy conservation, waste and recycling practices, water conservation strategies, alternative transportation options, consumer choices, and more.

Greek Eco-Reps will have the opportunity to interact with other environmental leaders on campus, attend trips throughout the Philadelphia area, hear from guest speakers, and create chapter programs that challenge their peers to adopt more sustainable behaviors.

The Greek Eco-Reps program is managed by sustainability staff in Facilities and Real Estate Services and is an initiative of the Penn Green Campus Partnership, an umbrella group of students, staff, faculty, and community members that promotes better environmental practices and policy on campus.
