How can the University of Waterloo approach SDG 12: responsible consumption and production? How can we effectively communicate the resources available on campus that aid in waste sorting to the university community?
SDG 11 - Sustainable Cities and Communities
How do we reach the broader community about sustainability initiatives on campus? What kind of communication tools can we use? What are some important topics to share to others?
Is there a potential for ground source heat pumps in existing buildings on campus? How can we implement UN Sustainable Development Goals 7 and 13, for affordable and clean energy and climate action?
The University of Waterloo has a large untapped potential for renewable energy production that can reduce peak electricity demand and greenhouse gas emissions. Renewable energy systems are an important solution to the climate crisis and can also reduce the power draw during the five peak demand days that impact electricity costs throughout the year.
