YorkU receives WWF-Canada Living Campus designation

York University has earned the Living Campus certification from World Wildlife Fund Canada (WWF-Canada) in recognition of its commitment to engaging the community in conservation action and education. In awarding this designation to YorkU, WWF-Canada has acknowledged the university’s efforts to “green” its campuses, including by implementing a new grass naturalization strategy and establishing a pollinator habitat. “Certified Living campuses shine as examples of how postsecondary institutions can play a meaningful role in restoring nature, advancing sustainability and cultivating the next wave of conservation professionals,” said YorkU Chief Sustainability Officer Mike Layton.
