I want to work with the existing environmental projects on campus, start new projects, and campaign to ensure sustainability on campus. Especially food options for students are a focus for me.

Green and Blue Space:

• Work with volunteers to keep the Green and Blue space alive and thriving after the staff leaves
• Actively support the ongoing process of applying for funds for the green and blue space to pay for a possible staff member, projects, volunteer training etc.
  • E.g. through bottle tax

Food:

• More options on Campus for people with special diet requirements like people with allergies or intolerances, vegetarians, and vegans
  • Easier guidelines to allergens, marking of vegan/ vegetarian food
• Meat-free Monday Campaign: Save the planet by skipping meat only once a week
• Work with union outlets to use local organic food to keep the carbon footprint low and the food quality high
  • Provide healthy food options

NUS Green Impact

• Keep working on the aims of the Green Impact Excellence: the project for a waste free campus does not end with the award
• Keep meeting the standards to win Gold in the Green Impact Awards and have our union recognised
