Go Green, Go Global

Given today’s skyrocketing gas prices, driving to a college campus can significantly increase the costs of earning your degree.  Earning your degree online at CSU-Global Campus will not only save you the time and expense of driving to a campus, it can also further your career and enhance your earning power.  

Online education is also one of the most effective ways you can reduce your carbon footprint. By logging on in lieu of commuting to a classroom, you are conserving resources.

  • You drive less, reducing gas consumption and carbon dioxide emissions
  • You use fewer campus resources
  • You and your faculty use less paper

The production and provision of online learning courses consumes nearly 90% less energy & produces 85% fewer CO2 emissions than traditional campus-based college courses.

Go Green with an Online Degree

As the reality of climate change sinks in around the globe, more and more Americans are looking for ways to reduce their own carbon footprints without drastically altering their standards of living. An online degree not only uses 90% less energy than its traditional counterpart -- but, unlike most conservation strategies, actually makes the user's life more convenient.  For the first time, students have the opportunity to make an environmental impact while at same time receiving a high-quality educational experience. Conserving natural resources is only the tip of the iceberg. An online education program also enables students to strengthen global communities and build awareness of environmental responsibilities.
