The Sustainability Consultation

[...]there will be solar photovoltaics on all of the roofs of the atrium that might be more visible because it’s the lower level, and on the north and the east wings of the building that may be less visible because of the height of it. ’ ‘The main way we’re going to approach this is by telling a narrative around it, using information screens through the building that talk about energy consumption, the energy savings, how much we’re generating through the photovoltaics, and the measures that we’ve taken during the design and the construction of the building to save carbon. Alex, do you want to just sort of square off what we’re going to have to do there to change our behaviour yet still meet our mission of being an internationally credible University?’ Looking out the window from her city apartment, ibar402 watched as workers began installing a section of a vertical garden on an internal wall of a campus building. ‘… so, we have quite a challenge in this respect because approximately 34% of our carbon cost is in work-related travel, a lot of which relates to research-related travel. [...]if we want to reduce that, and we do want to reduce that by 50% by 2030, as proposed in the nickel cap, zero carbon strategy, we need to understand that travel information, we need to understand who’s travelling, when and why.’
