Problem
● R&DE lacks a comprehensive, long-term
program to incentivize energy, water and
waste reduction among students in housing
beyond the Sustainable Living Guide. This
leads to unnecessary costs and
environmental footprint.
![Page 40: Final Presentations 2014 - PDF](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020213/58a197f71a28ab735d8b8521/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Goals
● Encourage and incentivize more sustainable
living habits and awareness among Stanford
Students
● Reduce overall resource consumption,
specifically focusing in on student energy
use, water use and waste
![Page 41: Final Presentations 2014 - PDF](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020213/58a197f71a28ab735d8b8521/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Investigation
Focus groups and interviews were conducted in
order to determine the best way to effectively
reach the Stanford student population.
![Page 42: Final Presentations 2014 - PDF](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020213/58a197f71a28ab735d8b8521/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Investigation
Key Findings:
● A lighthearted, yet educational approach to
these issues is the best way to reach
students
● Communicate tangible results/metrics
legitimizes the sustainability program and
inspires students to actually perform
● Create a community network for reinforcing
behavior change
![Page 43: Final Presentations 2014 - PDF](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020213/58a197f71a28ab735d8b8521/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Solution
● Make information on our website more
applicable and available to students & staff
through more frequent updates to the
sustainable housing website
● Develop and script an effective video series
on “How to Live Sustainably in the Student
Housing”
![Page 44: Final Presentations 2014 - PDF](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020213/58a197f71a28ab735d8b8521/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Implementation
● Update the Sustainable Stanford website to
include more recent initiatives and
information so that students have
information available to them
● Create and distribute Sustainable Living
video series implementing familiar Stanford
faces to deliver the message of how to live
sustainably on campus
![Page 45: Final Presentations 2014 - PDF](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020213/58a197f71a28ab735d8b8521/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Reflection
I learned about how to effectively reach a
university student body and useful tools for
eliciting behavioral change in regards to
sustainability initiatives as well as other general
initiatives.
I look forward to the eventual creation and
distribution of the video series and hope it has a
positive impact on Stanford sustainability efforts.

Thank you!
I would like to give a special thanks to Nicole
Greenspan and Laura McKaughan who have
provided immense guidance and support
throughout the planning and conceptualizing
of the video series as well as my entire
internship experience.
