Sustainability Scavenger Hunt

The global community is actively working toward achieving the 17 U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that will help create a future that is equitable and sustainable for all. Supporting these global goals can happen at home, in your community, at MSU and beyond. Take part in this fun scavenger hunt developed by the MSU Office of Sustainability to spot places, resources, and behaviors that reflect the global goals. Can you find them all? The scavenger hunt was developed as part of the 2022 MSU Science Festival.

Michigan State University Science Festival. 10 years. April 1 - 30, 2022.
