Travel represents a major component of the carbon impact of universities through travel associated with research, student recruitment, international student travel and field courses. Many universities have declared environment and climate emergencies and have values-statements that reference ecological care. Yet shifting practices, systems and policies is challenging, as flying has become so entwined with research and education.
In this webinar, Professor Stewart Barr (ACCESS Leadership team) from the University of Exeter explored academic perspectives on how we can de-carbonise travel in higher education and practical efforts to change practices, systems and policies through applying the ACCESS Guiding Principles.
