The Green Education Declaration
With the launch of Go Green Week by People & Planet, many students will be lobbying their Vice Chancellor or Principal to ensure they sign The Green Education Declaration. The Declaration was launched this morning with a total of thirteen initial signatories. It calls for this year’s Climate Change Bill to commit the education sector to a clear carbon reduction strategy.
Vice Chancellors from ten universities plus the National Union of Students, the University and College Union and the Environmental Association of Universities and Colleges have become the first to sign the Declaration. An up to date list of signatories is available through the P&P website so you can keep checking back to see if your VC or Principal has signed up.
