We share here our Climate and Sustainability Action Plan, which outlines the Faculty of Law’s specific needs, challenges and opportunities in meeting the objectives of 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ’s Vision 2020 Sustainability Strategy.
The Plan is the result of a collaboration between the Faculty’s Sustainability Committee and 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ’s Office of Sustainability. It is based on community consultations held during the academic year 2018-2019. It defines and details seven key action points, which focus on areas over which the Faculty has direct control:
- Educate the community on how to reduce our ecological footprint
- Improve the sustainability of events hosted by and at the Faculty
- Reduce air travel emissions
- Decrease the amount of paper printed at the faculty
- Pursue funding opportunities to purchase recycling bins for all classrooms and kitchens
- Encourage management staff and supervisors to incorporate sustainability objectives into performance dialogues where appropriate
- Establish lines of communication between the Sustainability Committee and other committees and units within the Faculty to create new partnerships
The Action Plan will be reviewed regularly with a view to updating it periodically to align with current campus initiatives. We will post annual progress reports on this page as well.
