Procurement Services Guidelines
Duke's Green Purchasing Program helps University purchasers and employees make environmentally responsible purchasing decisions to reduce negative effects on human health and the environment.
In July of 2004, Duke adopted a set of Environmentally Preferable Purchasing Guidelines to reduce our environmental impact in six strategic areas, including source reduction, forest conservation, recycled content, landscaping, energy & water, and toxics & pollution.
