Now, the reason for my Tom Jones inspired title is because ‘Go Green Week’ returns to the University between 10– 14 February. There are many events planned to help celebrate this. This year’s national focus is on ‘breaking up’ with the fossil fuel industry on Fossil Free Friday.
Students and staff are invited to attend a range of events that have been organised in partnership with the Sustainability Team, Students’ Green Unit and student societies e.g. EnviroSoc and Oxfam Society. These include Breakfasts for walkers, Dr Bike cycle repair, a second-hand bike sale, ReUse Free Stuff event and much more. Check out the full timetable of events which will take place across the Streatham and St Lukes Campus’.
If you’d like and more information about any of the events running as part of Go Green Week 2014, please contact Bryony Wilde, Sustainability Projects Officer.
Also don’t forget that you can have your say and make your nominations for the Student Guild Elections. Don’t delay…vote today!
