NU's Engineers for a Sustainable World (ESW), the student group which already made a big impact on campus by leading the implementation of the 16.8-kilowatt Centennial solar array on the Ford is back at it! Now they’re looking into the feasibility of small wind turbines on Evanston's campus with the help of Facilities Management, the Office of Sustainability, Initiative for Sustainability and Energy at Northwestern (ISEN), and Professor Patricia Beddows.

Transit Tips

Walk it Out. Nothing is cleaner, greener, or healthier than being a pedestrian.
Cycle. Get your bike out of storage and take it for a spin or check out Wildcat Wheels to rent a bike.
Go with the Masses. Evanston and Chicago have fantastic public transit options, take advantage of them!
