Boiler Green Initiative's Mission Statement:
The Boiler Green Initiative is a multi-disciplinary, campus-wide student organization that focuses on the evaluation and continued enhancement of the sustainability of Purdue University and its surrounding communities.

One of our main focuses on a campus with an ever expanding footprint is "green" building technology. A significant component of a green building strategy is an integrated green roof system.
It is our goal as a student-let organization to design, fund, install, and monitor Purdue University's first Green Roof on Schleman Hall. We will set a precedent on Purdue's campus for increased environmental responsibility as well as to provide a means for others to learn in a "hands on" style about practices that lead towards a more sustainable future. We believe that one of the biggest barriers to environmental change is the lack of understanding by the general public and by creating a system that can be experienced first-hand we can help eliminate that barrier.
