Want to be more involved in climate action at oxford?
Join the Decarbonise Oxford campaign!
We are looking for Oxford students to represent their college in our new campaign Decarbonise Oxford. Colleges should be setting targets for carbon reduction and sustainability which are at least as ambitious as the University targets. We believe students can play a pivotal role in getting their colleges to respond to the climate emergency through demanding transparent sustainability plans and targets.
We know student lives are busy, so being a college rep can make a big difference without being a big time commitment. If you're interested in taking part fill out the application here and join the decarbonise oxford facebook group to get the latest update and information.
