Campaigns

Birds and Bees

The Birds and Bees campaign which aims to identify and implement further enhancement projects, develop engagement projects for the University and local communities as well provide opportunities to use the campus as a living laboratory through the identifying of student and research projects. 

Degrees Cooler

The project seeks to help 90,000 students and staff across 20 English universities measurably change their everyday behaviours for the sake of the environment.

Green Impact

The University is taking part in an exciting 2 year project called Green Impact. This year (2009/2010) 20 teams of staff took part in the environmental accreditation scheme, to ‘green’ their work practices. The same 20 teams will take part in Year 2 and improve on their first year achievements.

Student Re-use Project

This project aims to recycle and reuse items between students by holding various on campus events.

Students on the Move Project

‘Students on the Move’ was a collaboration between the University, Students’ Guild and City Council. The aim of the scheme was to provide focused refuse collections and a series of ‘Community Clear-up’ days for students leaving their city residences during the Summer.

Planting Roots in the Community

Students at the University of Exeter have planted 200 trees on the main campus as part of a volunteering scheme.
