At Children’s Discovery Museum of San Jose, we believe in building a better world—not just for today’s children, but for future generations. That’s why sustainability is woven into everything we do, from our exhibits and programs to our daily operations.

The Museum is dedicated to modeling environmental responsibility and inspiring our community to take action. Our sustainability efforts focus on:

• Education through play: Exhibits and activities that teach kids about ecosystems, conservation, recycling, and renewable energy.
• Green building practices: Our Museum features eco-friendly infrastructure, including energy-efficient lighting, water conservation systems, and sustainable materials.
• Outdoor learning: In Bill’s Backyard, children explore nature firsthand while learning how to care for plants, soil, and water.

Sustainability starts with small steps. When you visit the Museum, you’ll find tips and tools to bring green practices home with you. Whether it’s starting a compost bin, reducing plastic use, or learning about water conservation, we empower families to make choices that matter.
