Energy & Recycling
Residents are encouraged to be environmentally responsible and supportive of the University’s Environment Policy by making use of all resources and recycling facilities on site.
- Conserve energy by: switching off all lights when not needed and especially when you leave your room; not leaving electrical appliances on standby – switch off your television, stereo and PC including the monitor, especially overnight or if you are away at weekends.
- Conserve water by: turning off hot and cold taps; not washing your hands under a running tap; reporting dripping or leaking taps to Reception.
- Waste management: help us to reduce the amount of waste that needs to go to landfill by making good use of any recycling facilities available on site. Most sites have glass bottle and newspaper/magazine banks and other recycling schemes. Refer to the A-Z of Recycling to see what you can do to help the environment. Further advice is available from Reception.
