Here is a message from Mark Orlowski with SEI:

“SEI just launched GreenReportCard.org this week.
This site is the only place on the web that provides in-depth sustainability profiles for hundreds of colleges in all 50 U.S. States and Canada. Data are based on results from the new College Sustainability Report Card 2009.

The Report Card has transitioned from its former PDF format into this new, interactive website to feature the complete results of our latest research.

In addition, the full contents from both the 2007 and 2008 editions of the Report Card have been transferred into the new site.

See below to learn more about the new website, the results of the Report Card 2009, and the launch of SEI’s interactive Google Maps that let you discover school grades in your geographic area.
