Election post
Different experiences have shaped my motivation to work as your Sustainability Officer. Last summer, I authored 3 reform bills on Environmental Law to address the climate crisis in my home state.
Moreover, after working at the Climate Action Society, I now have a better grasp on how UCL operates and where we must focus our sustainability efforts. I aim to use these same skills to bring about structural change to UCL.
Whether elected or not, I sincerely offer my commitment to achieving the goals described below at our university.
Finance
- Switch from Barclays banking account
- Ensure no more investments are made to firms that are linked with the fossil industry
Sustainability Plan
- Ensure student flights and scope 3 are included in UCL’s carbon-zero strategy
- Create more green spaces for students on campus
Education
- Work on the implementation of the students sustainability training programme
- Implement a “Fossil Free Careers” policy
Food
- Work with UCL NUS delegates to bring forward the Plant Based Uni’s campaign
Student Groups
- Introduce a Sustainability Officer position within student groups
I’ll be honest. Whether I get elected or not, I will continue to work on the objectives described above at the Climate Action Society.
So why should you vote for me then? Well, I believe that working in the Student Union will be incredibly useful to better influence UCL’s decision-making process when discussing finance, food, education, and energy strategies.
If elected as your Sustainability Officer, I will continuously work to mobilise our students' political voice and bring forward a more sustainable agenda to our UCL community.
