Objectives and Targets

During 2008/09 the University has exceeded or met the majority of its targets. However, there remains challenges particularly in areas where fundamental behaviour change is required e.g. commuting by car or the overall reduction of waste.

Estates and Facilities have committed to high environmental specifications on a number of building projects and have developed an aspiration building specification for environmental performance.

In 2009/10 Estates and Facilities will develop a more targeted and co-ordinated approach to the management of water consumption and the biodiversity of the Estate.

Objective 1: Energy and Water.
Improve energy and water management thus reducing consumption.
Find out more about our Energy and Water Targets...

Objective 2: Travel.
Implement measures to reduce staff and student dependence on simgle occupancy car and plane travel.
Find out more about our Travel Targets...

Objective 3: Waste.
Use the waste management heirarchy to reduce waste from our activities and take action to re-use and recycle rather than dispose.
