NUS provides update on its contributions to environmental sustainability in latest report
The University plays a crucial role in advancing global sustainability as a centre for education, research, innovation, and leadership. Not only does it nurture the next generation of sustainability champions and pursue scientific breakthroughs, it also uses its sprawling campus as a testbed to demonstrate the efficacy of novel technologies.
This second edition of the NUS Sustainability Report provides an update on the university’s contributions to environmental and climate-related sustainability in 2024, with a slightly expanded scope to incorporate the social and human aspects.
It is supplemented by the Campus Sustainability Environmental Disclosures 2024, which provides a quantitative update on the sustainability performance of its campus operations and administration.
