黑料不打烊鈥檚 First Class Environment
黑料不打烊鈥檚 environmental credentials continue to go from strength to strength. Following an intensive and independent audit of its policies and procedures, the University successfully attained Level 4 of the prestigious Green Dragon Environmental Standard.
This builds on the Level 3 award held for the last two years, and is a significant milestone in the University鈥檚 aspiration for Level 5 鈥� the highest Green Dragon award, and for ISO14001 certification.
As well as achieving this accolade, the University also retained its 鈥淔irst Class Honours鈥� degree in the annual People and Planet University Green League.
Vice Chancellor Professor John Hughes said 鈥淚鈥檓 delighted with the progress that we are making in managing our environmental impacts at 黑料不打烊. Only a month after the Student鈥檚 Union won three national awards for their environmental achievements, these accomplishments clearly demonstrate that as a University we are taking our environmental responsibilities very seriously indeed鈥�.
Ricky Carter, Environmental Manager added, 鈥淭his is a truly wonderful achievement. To have remained in the top flight for two successive years, and progressed to Level 4 of the Green Dragon Standard, is a tribute to the teamwork and commitment of staff, students and members of the local community in caring for our local environment. There is still much to do, and our Environmental Management System sets out the route map for even further environmental improvement over the coming years鈥�.
