Center for the Advancement of Sustainable Living
A Passive House Retrofit
The Center for the Advancement of Sustainable Living (CASL) is a student-run organization at the University of Oregon meant to inspire ecologically and socially conscious living practices through experiential learning.
The group, founded in 2002, acquired a home to retrofit with the latest green building technology. The CASL house will soon operate as a state-of-the-art demonstration home for low-impact living near campus. We currently hold workshops, classes, and tours that connect University of Oregon students and faculty with community organization and local professionals. Ultimately, the house at 1801 Moss Street will be the home of three CASL Directors who will facilitate tours, maintain the grounds, and will be exemplars of easy and economical living.
