What will you do to transform our world?

We are serious about reducing our carbon emissions and are focused on reducing energy consumption and reducing use of fossil fuels. We now have a Campus Heat Decarbonisation Plan which you can read to understand our plans to reduce gas consumption. 

In our university strategy, BU2025, we see ourselves as a thought leader in sustainability and we measure the success of our leadership by our positive impact on society and the planet, and by ensuring we take the BU community with us on this journey.

At BU, sustainability is a key component when undergoing works to improve our estate. 

We're proud to have ranked 1st in the world for SDG12: Responsible Consumption & Production (THE Impact Rankings 2024).

We're committed to giving you nutritious and affordable food that minimises has a low environmental footprint and is ethically sourced.
