The University of Waterloo has launched its first Environmental Sustainability Strategy (PDF) and it was clear that it would take a community to make this happen. 

You can help make campus more sustainable. Meet the team on a mission to green our home away from home and find out how you can get involved. 

IC3 is pleased to partner with Concept and the Problem lab to support University of Waterloo students through the WE Accelerate Program. The ​​​​​​new program will offer one-term work projects, with mentorship support from industry partners

Fighting against the harmful effects of climate change can take many different forms. Reducing, reusing, and recycling are helpful and have been staples of eco-friendly campaigns for decades, but with technological advances and an increased urgency we as a species must do more.

UWaterloo students from the faculty of Engineering and Environment hosted a recent webinar presented by the Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change (IC3) and Faculty of Health. The webinar “The impacts of climate change on public health: Opportunities to mitigate risk” was held on February 10, 2021.

IC3 has teamed up with UWaterloo's Concept to offer grant funding for business ideas aimed at solving climate change problems. This funding will be awarded to student teams to directly support innovation and entrepreneurship focused on climate solutions.
