We are committed to adopting a whole University approach to sustainability and social responsibility. We will ensure that limited resources are used effectively and activity is conduced in a way that minimises environmental impacts, while demonstrating an awareness of ethical and social responsibility. Read about our sustainability commitment.
- Currently we are 5th in the world for responsible consumption and production. We are committed to a net-zero carbon omission before 2040. We will:
- Encourage everyone within our community to work and live sustainably, recognising the importance of our time, energy and resilience
- Educate all our students and staff to be leaders in protecting the environment
- Excel in research that addresses the climate emergency, enables energy transition and the preservation of biodiversity
- Achieve net zero carbon emissions before 2040
- Generate resources for investment in education and research year on year, so that we can continue to develop the people, ideas and actions that help us to fulfil our purpose
