Sustainability strategy feedback FSS by Emily Harrison https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi en-us 2020-10-19 11:51:35 UTC 2020-11-27 12:32:06 UTC hello@padlet.com I had to duck out for 4 parts of the strategy; is there something about food recycling on FB - could add to integration of student/local community? https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/840620295 2020-10-19 11:54:28 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/840620295 Trouble with a carbon budget is how it is set in the first place; how do you take into account all the variables, eg where is research being completed, 'culture' of the research specialism. Are there too many variables to set a budget. Is is more about snap shot of what is spent each year and then seeing how it changes (ideally downward trend). https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/840625368 2020-10-19 11:56:53 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/840625368 Carbon budget - does it become another layer of bureaucracy? Do we already have enough hoops? https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/840633092 2020-10-19 12:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/840633092 Will you include emissions from home working, anticipating that this might be more common post Covid? emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881986961 2020-11-02 12:03:32 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881986961 Brilliant initiative, doable and impact that can be measured. Goal 1 - reduced power consumption and aim for less than 5% printing of say 2019 average, put auto sensor lights and water taps in the toilet. Water conservation is KEY, and we are at the brink of water poverty in a foreseeable future. Engaging schools can make a difference emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881987682 2020-11-02 12:03:59 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881987682 Would note that sustainability is often hidden in the curriculum e.g. next generation batteries/sustainable energy is contained in modules in Maths with names such as "Numerical Methods" "Modelling with Diff Equations". emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988060 2020-11-02 12:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988060 Would be interested in colleagues views around a carbon budget for university travel emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988400 2020-11-02 12:04:23 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988400 A key initiative from School of Education led by Martin (HoS) and team - WATERLAB (currently WaterLab India, but our aim is to make it global) https://www.southampton.ac.uk/indiacentre/research/water-lab-india.page emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988609 2020-11-02 12:04:32 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988609 As a city, we are unusual by not having a park and ride facility emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988839 2020-11-02 12:04:40 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881988839 The SBS is an accredited member of the United nations Principles of Responsible Management Education (UNPRME). In the past five years, we have progressed to advanced membership and are in the process of setting up a UK chapter of PRME to help sharing ideas and events on a more local level. So we could work and share ideas together... emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989129 2020-11-02 12:04:51 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989129 People with disabilities and chronic health issues (but not necessarily blue badge) may still need to come in by car as public transport too tiring. Are these people included in estimates of needs for parking? emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989411 2020-11-02 12:05:01 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989411 International business travel post-Covid is essential for sustaining our global reputation and profiling but can be substantially reduced (by at least 75%) and coordinated more effectively emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989603 2020-11-02 12:05:08 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989603 A carbon budget could be a useful way of doing things, but we'd need a way to manage the politics of it - e.g. to ensure that PGRs and ECRs budgets are protected. emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989813 2020-11-02 12:05:17 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881989813 Sorry, I was late due to the same meeting at Jim. I notice in the chat earlier there was mention of a pulse survey needed (in relation to sustainability i suspect). Institutional research is planning a staff and student pulse survey in December and again in April. Needee Myers is the person to contact if wanted other questions included. emilyharrisonuos https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881992846 2020-11-02 12:07:08 UTC https://padlet.com/emilymaeharrison/i9aidma1go88wgoi/wish/881992846
