Project Summary:

The Clean Commute Celebration is an interactive event dedicated to promoting sustainable transportation and fostering eco-conscious mobility across the Northern Arizona University campus. Spearheaded by the Office of Sustainability in collaboration with Mountain Life, NAU Transportation, the Yellow Bike Program, and various student clubs, this event actively educates the campus community on alternative commuting methods to reduce reliance on cars. The gathering at the North Quad highlights interactive educational booths, hands-on sustainable crafts, and a vegetarian picnic designed to emphasize sustainable food choices. By engaging approximately 100 students, faculty, and staff, the event successfully advances the university’s climate action goals through the active promotion of biking, walking, and public transit. This collaborative effort directly minimizes the campus carbon footprint while building a vibrant, eco-minded community.
