BURBANK — Construction crews are set to break ground on a $14.9-million Burbank Water and Power project as part of what officials called an aggressive plan to serve as a model of sustainability.Telecom titans in a brave new mobile world (The Globe and Mail)
It's a paradox: The world is rushing to embrace mobile communications, but some of the biggest suppliers of telecommunications equipment are struggling to stay ahead.Earth Year 2009: Summer’s the time to get kids involved in the outdoors (Corvallis Gazette-Times)
Summer is often considered the traditional time to be outdoors. Despite that tradition, there is evidence that our nation’s children are not making that connection, even in summer. Many children have a greater knowledge of consumer brands than local plants and animals.St. Anthony named City of Excellence by LMC (Mounds View Sun-Focus)
The City of St. Anthony received the City of Excellence Award from the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC) for its efforts to effectively and innovatively reduce the negative environmental impacts of stormwater runoff.Gustavus closer to installing turbines (Mankato Free Press)

Kaye Johnston gets all worked up when she talks about the University of Missouri-Kansas City’s new environmental sustainability degree. The volume of her voice rises. Her words come faster, and she can barely keep still in her chair, explaining all the “good stuff” students, faculty and administrators are doing to promote green living on campus and in the surrounding communities.AASHE Announces New Executive Director
AASHE is pleased to announce that Dr. Paul Rowland will assume the role of executive director on August 1, 2009.

About Campus Sustainability Day
Campus Sustainability Day was founded in 2002 as part of the Society for College and University Planning's early efforts—working with Second Nature—to support cross-departmental, cross-disciplinary, cross-functional, integrated campus planning for sustainability. A lot has happened in this area since 2002, and now—although SCUP continues to provide the cornerstone high-quality webcast for Campus Sustainability Day—this network and the day itself are a collaboration between many organizations, including HEASC members and the National Wildlife Federation's Campus Ecology Project.
