A web portal showcasing what the UTS community is doing on climate change, with resources to help better understand, mitigate and live with our rapidly changing climate.
Project summary
UTS4Climate showcases UTS contributions to climate change research, advocacy and action.
Inspired by the 2019 Global Climate Strikes and the energy and passion of our own students and young people around the globe, UTS signed a climate emergency declaration.
This committed us to:
- provide more resources to climate change research and skills creation
- increase sustainability education across the curriculum, campus and community programs
- continue to bring communities, industry and government together to debate the contested themes around the climate emergency
- argue for the need for a climate consensus
- and work towards carbon neutrality on campus.
The UTS4Climate website highlights some of the contributions we have made so far. The site provides access to world-leading climate research, expert talks and panel discussions, podcasts, debates, student action, and more.
