The University of Oregon is going green by joining the Billion Dollar Green Challenge-an initiative to finance energy efficiency upgrades on campuses across the country. The Challenge will invest $1 billion in self-managed revolving funds for the upgrades for the University of Oregon and 32 other institutions. The University will abide by Oregon Model for Sustainable Development—a programme that will cap energy use from new development.
