The Sustainability Club at Merritt College is an environmental-focused student-led club. Our vision is to create a safe space for students interested and passionate about the Natural World and solving Environmental Issues. We aim to create a more sustainable campus and community, collaborating with other student clubs and local organizations. We plan to host outdoor activities, events, hiking trips, community clean-ups, and discussions in-person or via Zoom. The Sustainability Club is a resource for students looking to pursue Environmental Careers.

Our current projects and collaborations include:

  • Leona Canyon maintenance in collaboration with East Bay Parks
  • Acquiring more green compost bins on Merritt campus 
  • Compost collections for the Environmental Center garden from Thunderbird Cafe
  • Reviewing the Peralta District’s Board Policy on Environmental Sustainability
