Webinar: What Is Sustainable Science, and How Can We Green Our Labs?

November 8, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

The research and teaching conducted in university laboratories often has an outsized impact on a campus’ carbon footprint, due to the energy-intensive nature of lab air quality requirements, as well as the emissions associated with the building and operations. Water-intensive processes and hard-to-recycle wastes also challenge lab sustainability managers. To improve energy and water efficiency, decrease emissions, and reduce waste in labs, it’s essential to engage scientists in the green lab effort. The key is to empower students, researchers, building managers, purchasers, campus planners, and other leaders to support sustainable initiatives within their labs, buildings, and systemic change across the research enterprise.

During this webinar, attendees will learn how a green lab program can reduce resource use, emissions, and waste and promote sustainable science.
