Sustainability at The College
Protecting our planet for future generations is everyone's responsibility. At the College, we encourage all students, staff and our communities, to get involved in positive action towards climate change.
Whenever possible, we encourage the use of sustainable transport options, with initiatives such as the Cycle to Work Scheme. We hold an annual Sustainability Week, to focus on the key issues. Other Green initiatives cover a wide range of areas, all of which are managed in accordance with our Sustainability Policy.
Small changes can have a large impact. Through a constant focus on reducing energy consumption, we've achieved a decrease equivalent of over 33 tonnes of CO2, over the last few years. But this is just the start. We will:
