The Green Seed Fund awards grants to UW faculty, students, and staff to research opportunities that advance sustainable research while contributing to campus sustainability goals. Listed below are projects awarded for funding during 2014.
A committee comprised of students, faculty and staff reviewed fifteen proposals totaling over $975,000 and awarded five proposals nearly $279,000 in funding. The projects were selected because the review committee felt that they will contribute to UW sustainability goals, are research focused, the project scope seems well thought out and achievable, the project has a broad reach, and will contribute to greenhouse gas reductions for the University.
