Simon Fairbanks, our Head of Community Engagement, will deliver a talk about how you can reduce your digital carbon footprint at SU Digital 2024.
Our students and staff are passionate about sustainability.
Many of our students' unions are taking steps to reduce paper and printing.
However, our digital content has a carbon footprint too. Websites, emails, and social media are all contributing towards our planet's climate crisis.
And it's only getting worse in this increasingly digital age...
In this session, you will:
Learn how your students' union's digital content is damaging the environment
Understand how to decarbonise your digital content by applying the 5 Rs of the waste hierarchy: refuse, reduce, reuse, repair, retire
Discover a variety of tools and resources to further develop your knowledge about digital sustainability, and lobby for wider change across your campus.
Let's go green when we go online!
