In celebration of Sustainability Week, UQ GEMS and SAPS have paired up to have a relaxed lunch break on the Grassy Knoll where you can paint some cute plant pots.
Do you have an overly loved personal item in need of repair? Threads that need patching up? Bring them to UQ’s Repair Café and they will be fixed for free by our volunteer fixers.
The everyday products we buy can have a big impact on our environment, health and communities. Being aware of your buying habits can help you to make more sustainable choices and deliver a better outcome for you and the planet.
“Plogging” is the activity of jogging and picking up litter, it’s like a speedy emu walk. UQSRC and UQGEMS will be hitting the pavement with bags and gloves in hand, picking up as much rubbish as we can find around UQ’s St Lucia campus.
This event is a mixed mode webinar and workshop aiming to educate students and staff at UQ about coral bleaching events on the Great Barrier Reef. Light refreshments will be provided for those attending in person.
Making more sustainable transport choices when it comes to the daily commute not only helps to reduce your personal emissions, it also promotes health and wellbeing and contributes to many other sustainability outcomes.
The UQ Gatton Community Garden is a place where staff and students come together to grow fresh food, to learn, relax and make new friends. Visit the garden during Open Day, meet our Garden Coordinator and learn more.
