We are in a climate emergency, and it is our responsibility to make change possible. It’s time to change at London South East Colleges.
A new report by the Association of Colleges has highlighted how vital education is to climate change and sustainability. We as a nation can collectively achieve our net zero emissions goal by 2050. As an education organisation, this means we need to rethink everything we do to ensure sustainability is at the heart of our operations.
As part of The Green College Commitment, London South East Colleges has pledged to become a net zero college by 2050, increasingly reducing its environmental impact annually. From its education programme to its campus and learning community, London South East Colleges is inviting everyone to play their part.
We believe that by focusing on these four themes, our organisation can make positive environmental changes in these ways:
- Positive impact. Making a positive impact to reduce our carbon impact through all our operations, functions and delivery
- Adding nature. Introducing more natural solutions, environments and choices in operations and decisions, supporting nature
- Inspiring action. Being a responsible provider by offering aligned learning, upskilling and encouraging a collective responsibility
- Your contribution. We all have a collective responsibility to make a positive impact in our lives and actions – what will you do or lead today?
