Waterloo’s sixth annual Eco Summit took place on November 20, coinciding with the release of the 2019 Environmental Sustainability Report. The theme, Building Hope, was interwoven with the goals of the Summit to connect with others, celebrate our progress and be inspired to go further.

The Sustainability Action Fund has granted funding for eight new projects on campus. These fall 2018 projects include workshops, a student-led conference, a documentary screening, and increased promotion and tools for waste reduction.

A message from President Feridun Hamdullahpur to all students, staff, and faculty:

I am pleased to share the University of Waterloo’s 2016 Environmental Sustainability Report.

Each year, Waterloo publishes a summary of the actions that students, staff and faculty have taken across campus to reduce our environmental impact. From new research projects to student events to ongoing changes to policy and practice, it is inspiring to see the dedication and involvement of so many people in our University community.

Today, the University of Waterloo released its 2015 Environmental Sustainability Report.  This year's report focuses on case studies and progress in academics, operations, and engagement.
