Green Rewards is an online platform and mobile app that rewards you for your sustainable activities. Log your actions to earn Green Points and the chance to win vouchers and make charity donations.
Plus, many of the actions are not only good for the planet but good for your pocket too.
Last year, university staff and students took part in 64,881 positive sustainable actions via Green Rewards. As a result, collectively we saved 98, 897 kg of carbon emissions – that’s equal to approximately 167 flights from London to New York.
Join Green Rewards before Tuesday 31 October and you could win a £50 voucher of your choice*.
There are themes with actions to complete addressing the environmental impacts of energy, travel, waste and nature. The top 8 point earners each month will win a £20 voucher.
As well as individual prizes, you’ll be in a team based on your department and the winning team will vote on a charity for the university to donate £200 to.
Most recently, the Chemical and Environmental Engineering team, won and voted to donate £200 to Nottingham Wildlife Trust.
We’re committed to our university being truly sustainable and we need everyone to join us in getting there. Change is possible when we all work together and even the smallest actions add up to big impacts.
If you’d like to know more about sustainability at Nottingham and how you can get involved, subscribe to the Sustainability Team’s monthly newsletter.
*Details of the voucher options can be found on Green Rewards.
