UW Sustainable Business Program Amps Up LARAMIE, WY (wpr) - The University of Wyoming is ramping up sustainable business instruction. Professor Eric Arnould says the legislature gave new money for the College of Business two years ago to establish the program. Since then, Arnould says businesses have looked for new ways to reduce their waste and repair their relationship with the community and environment: "Business have figured out they are concerned about more than making money and keeping the business in business. Their sphere of responsibility is larger than that."

For example, Arnould says companies are looking at ways of capturing heat from factories to hear their buildings. He says the school hopes to develop doctoral and masters programs in this field.
