The university recently let us know that its carbon emissions were down 19% during the 2020-21 academic year, although as the reductions came mostly from travel that didn’t take place because of the COVID-19 pandemic we look forward to seeing how it will frame what will presumably therefore be an emissions increase next year.
Meanwhile the 2021 People & Planet university rankings placed the university in 16th position nationally for its ethical and environmental performance.
Not too shabby, but not quite the table-topping performance promised by the university’s Green Futures PR.
