UWS Administration Initiatives

As part of the ongoing commitment UWS has towards sustainability and its role in environmental management the 'Green Office Program' will enable all UWS staff to make a tangible difference in an area that accounts for a large percentage of energy and resource use within the university. For more information, please see UWS Green Office project (PDF, 404Kb).

Buy Green at UWS

UWS has negotiated to add to the UWS Corporate Express Product list a number of approved Earthsaver equivalent products that are cost neutral and give great environmental benefits. For more information, please see UWS and Corporate Express Earthsaver Partnership.
