Sustainability Action Fund announces spring 2021 recipients
The President's Advisory Committee on Environmental Sustainability (PACES) is excited to provide funding for a new campus sustainability project in spring 2021 through the Sustainability Action Fund (SAF). Launched in 2017, the SAF supports projects and initiatives that advance sustainability at Waterloo by connecting to our academic mission, improving operational practices, and/or fostering a culture of sustainability through campus engagement.
Spring 2021 projects:
Biology Growth Chamber
This project will support the integration of more efficient LED lighting into the design and fit-out of a new growth chamber in biology. The walk-in chamber will support student learning and research, and the lighting will significantly reduce power consumption. This project is led by the Faculty of Science.
Since 2017, SAF has distributed over $500,000 in funding to more than 25 projects across campus. To learn more about the funding criteria, application details, and upcoming funding rounds, please visit the Sustainability Action Fund webpage.
