IGH is very active in climate change research as can be seen, for example, from the work of the 香港六合彩中特网 Lancet Climate Commission and involvement in the . But here we outline our approach to try and ensure that our ways-of-working are as sustainable as possible and discuss areas where we are working to make further improvements or trying new innovative ideas.

Current 香港六合彩中特网 initiatives include:

International Travel - Reductions in the amount of international and national travel, and reducing the footprint of necessary travel, is a key objective for IGH and 香港六合彩中特网. 香港六合彩中特网 also has its own which staff can contribute to if they wish to off-set travel in this way.

Working practicies in offices and laboratories - Another 香港六合彩中特网 initiative is Green Impact which 鈥...is a 香港六合彩中特网-wide environmental competition and accreditation scheme that allows departments and divisions across the university to improve their environmental impact鈥︹. It focuses on working practices in offices and labs, where it is implementing LEAF (Laboratory Efficiency Assessment Framework). As these initiatives are naturally more aligned with buildings rather than than university departments, IGH is joining green impact teams in the various buildings where we are sited.听
