Sustainable Liverpool
Sustainable Liverpool is the sustainability blog that provides regular updates on how we are working to make the University more sustainable. We bring you the latest updates from the Sustainability team, research, event highlights, and details of projects and campaigns. In addition, we’ll share articles on topics from climate action, innovation and gender equality to tips on well-being and sustainable living. We also share information on how you can contribute to sustainable research and work to improve social, cultural and environmental best practice across our campuses.
We want the blog to celebrate the ingenuity of our staff, students and partners. So, if you would like to contribute to the newsletter, please share your sustainability news, events or activities with sustainability@liverpool.ac.uk or complete the online form.
