Going Green
March 20, 2009
The California Association of Museums is going green with their new Green Museums Initiative. Check out their website here.
They break it down by departments and what each should think about and do: Administration, Building & Operations, Collections, Education, and Exhibitions.
Why is it important to be green?
Museums occupy physical space, just like any other structure, but their intention is unique in that they inform and inspire visitors from all walks of life about this beautiful and diverse world in which we live. Whether the theme is culture, the arts, space or ecology and conservation, all museums have the opportunity to set an example in environmental stewardship and social responsibility by building and operating green.
