Reduce The Students’ Union single plastics in our commercial outlets by 50% by the end of this academic year, on the way to 100%.

They worked on plans to eliminate all unnecessary single-use plastics from our shops and bars, aiming for 50% by the end of 2022.
 

Lobby the University to do the same!

The Presidents Team also worked with the university to achieve our goal, and pushing for us to all eliminate unnecessary single-use plastics, ASAP. In particular, they pushed to have the most sustainable option for our serveware (what we use to eat with, and what our food is in.) 
 

Increase biodiversity on campus, through green projects and lobbying against unsustainable expansion.

We're supporting projects to make all our campuses greener, and get plants into our buildings and accommodation. Furthermore, we're standing against any development works that decrease the life on our campuses.
