Abstract

The impact of university activities on the environment shouldbe studied and managed based on the constant evaluation of realconsumption needs, on the use of reusable or recyclable resources and onthe encouragement of an active and participatory role in terms of care andimprovement of the environment (physical and social) throughresponsible use.This is a challenge that requires the commitment of the entire universityand involves a continuous process of awareness-raising among students,teachers, researchers and staff.In 2016, UNSAM the National University of San Martin (UniversidadNacional de San Martín) conducted a study on mobility in its main campus"Miguelete", which covers an area of 20 hectares. Subsequently this andother works and analysis were systematized in the "Best EnvironmentalPractices Guide" made in 2019 and approved by the Superior Council ofthe UNSAM. This Guide aims to provide tools to make changes in habitsand new practices to minimize the impacts that the university itselfgenerates on the environment.The objective of the proposed presentation is to share with otheruniversities the common challenges and some actions to configure acomprehensive policy that combines and promotes economic, social andenvironmental sustainability within the framework of the 2030 Agenda.Keyword: Good environmental Practices/ Sustainable University Campus/Sustainable University Mobility/SDGs/Participative approach

Abstract

This paper aims to contribute in outlining the latest findings and formulating a simple practice in providing sufficient air circulation for classroom activities in preparation for the post-pandemic era. During this pandemic, remote learning over the internet has been a viable solution everywhere, including adopted by education institution to keep serving the learning process. However, as more and more people involved and the time elapses, several disadvantages of e-learning are realized. In addition, education institution should be prepared for the upcoming offline learning activity in post-pandemic era. This paper aims to refine the minimum airflow requirement for the classroom, finetuned based on student activity, ceiling height. Student activity is being the focus rather than teacher because student represents the majority of classroom occupant. In addition, a discussion on how it can be achieved using simpler ventilation system is presented. ON/OFF scheme for the usage of the active ventilation is also elaborated.Keyword: classroom, post-pandemic era, ventilation system, air circulation.

Abstract

In a moment of change, with an impulse from the pandemic that hit the world, the pursuit of the Sustainable Development Goals has become a clear necessity towards a more sustainable world, with less inequalities and a basis for the upbringing of future generations. SDG Goal 12 Sustainable Consumption and Production, 13 - Climate Action - and 14 - Life below water - are clearly linked to plastic and metal consumption and production. Also, Goal 10 - Reduced inequalities - plays its paper in this field. Not only does plastic and metal production, consumption and use need to be reformed, but also producers need to bridge inequalities and reuse, recycle and introduce circular economies in their own countries, not inducing mass imposition of waste in poorer economies. With this in mind, at the University of Aveiro, the REAP Project (Recycling of PET and Aluminium Packages) is being implemented, together with a Norwegian partner, with vast experience in the plastic waste sector. This project will help create the idea of PET and aluminium impact from a tax on these packages inside campi walls and a tax return after adequate deposition. Tracking these numbers and promoting research in the area of PET and aluminium reuse are a further input towards the implementation of SDGs.The paper will explain the project, its goals and ambitions.Keyword: PET, Can, SDG Goals, circular economy

Abstract

Renewable generation is gaining more thrust as the time passes, however, the growth rate of such production has been faster than the rate of the electrical grid modernization. This growth comes with great opportunities and challenges for building energy system (BES) design and planning. In this respect, this paper presents the experience and lessons learned from the design and planning of the BES of the “Universidad de Santander” (UDES) central campus. This BES renewable generation is composed of a rooftop PV system distributed across the campus buildings. The system started with 30 kWp of installed capacity (100 kWh/day on average) and now is ready to deliver near 300 kWh/day thanks to 70 kWp of extra capacity installed. In general, the implementation has been a success that now is being replied in other UDES’ campuses, and the decision taking involved highlighted the importance of a proper energy efficiency policy and electrical regulation analysis.

Abstract

To achieve an environmentally friendly campus, UMN operates gas engine generator with co-generation system. Waste heat from generator powers absorption chiller for air conditioning. UMN benefits clean energy sources, reduced pollution, and energy saving. The next phases rely on energy consumption reduction by applying passive design. Two towers were designed with double-skin facade. The perforated aluminum panel reduces solar heat gain on the building wall while still allows sunlight into the room for natural lighting. Lower room temperature will reduce cooling load, which will save energy. Combined with energyefficient appliances and natural air ventilation for corridors and open space, this concept saves more than half of energy consumption. Both towers were awarded the first and second winners of ASEAN Energy Award in 2014 and 2019. Various trees have been planted and produce oxygen to supply fresh air to create comfortable studying environment without air conditioning. To reduce carbon footprint, UMN provides shuttle bus and bike-sharing service. A holistic approach is implemented by recycling and conserving water with sewage water treatment and infiltration wells surrounding the campus. As part of the sustainability program, UMN has also utilized solar energy.

Abstract

Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES) declared itself as a conservation university with 3 main pillars, namely: (1) values and character, (2) arts and culture, and (3) natural resources and physical environment. UNNES believes the environmental crisis cannot be overcome only through practical and technical actions but it also attempts to change the way humans view and behave towards the environment. One indicator of natural resources pillars and the environment is green transportation. To implement green transportation, UNNES develops an internal transportation system to guide the use of vehicles, roads and parking areas on the campus. The use of regulated vehicles included motorized and non-motorized vehicles. The target of implementing a green transportation system was to reduce emissions in the campus environment to a minimum level. Motorized vehicles must obey the directional traffic signs applied in the campus environment and be only allowed to park in designated parking areas. Sufficient space for bicycle traffic, environmentally-friendly vehicles, and pedestrians on the sideways were preferred. Motor vehicle noise levels must not exceed 55 dB. Special vehicle traffic, among others, such as garbage transporters, watering plants, fire engines, and special-licensed vehicles were regulated under applicable regulations. Inspection tasks were carried out by security vehicles that can go through all roads in the campus environment in the direction of the designated lane, except in unlikely emergencies. Environmentally-friendly vehicles in the form of electric and non-fossil cars operated on Monday-Friday from 6:00 to 18:00 and were free. Markings with different colors, and bicycle lanes were used to differentiate between motorized vehicles. Campus parking points consisted of a central parking point and several auxiliary parking units. The central parking in the Multi-purpose Building was used for motorized vehicles or bicycles and was guarded 24 hours. Meanwhile, the auxiliary parking units were located in each work unit area which also had a security system. People with disabilities were facilitated through special signposts.

Abstract

In the Twentieth century transportation has been one of the most impactful drivers for economic and social development, while nowadays, it appears as a major cause of environmental and social problems. Even worse, the more transportation has become a relevant part in daily life and business, the more it is blamed for problems such as traffic congestion, car accidents, social economic inequality, energy consumption and pollution. Transportation is in fact caught in a vicious circle. Urban planning is forced to reduce transition costs, transforming cities in a sort of social network, and in parallel to orient mobility towards sustainability, both capable to convey socioeconomic development. Within this context, the University of Bologna has chosen a sustainable approach for its Multi-campus territorial structure, applying several sustainable mobility policies regarding public transportation, cycling, electric/hybrid car fleet and walking accessibility. The paper purpose is to show significative links between sustainable policy application and modal share, using data from an online survey submitted to university staff and students. Even gender influence on modal share has been investigated.

Abstract

The transportation system generally contributes with the largest share of Greenhouse Gases Emissions (GHG) among economic activities, which includes the high level of gas emissions from the transport system in the GHC Inventory from Higher Education Institutions (HEI). Guided by its socio-environmental agenda, the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), has sought to implement integrated programs to encourage the use of alternative transportation in order to mitigate the impacts of urban mobility on the atmosphere since 2010. Free parking and shower facilities for cyclists, as well as pedestrian friendly sites and limited vehicle parking area inside the campus are some of the welcomed interventions implemented by PUC-Rio. In addition, the institution has collaborated technically with the public authorities to enable the arrival of good quality mass transportation to the University neighborhood. Even facing limited mass public transportation in the surroundings of the main campus, PUC-Rio has implemented a series of transportation initiatives that rely on the commitment and partnership of its community (students, professors and staff), who strongly support new solutions for sustainable development and contribute to the improvement of PUC-Rio transportation performance

Abstract

The harnessing of renewable energies and mitigation of climate change are like two faces of a coin. Decentralized implementation and individual-level practices of eco-friendly strategies contribute a lot on a global scale. In this context, Mangalore University on its headquarters Mangalagangotri campus, adopted and implemented many eco-friendly activities, technologies, and policies for sustainable development. Installation of solar power panels for electricity generation, of the current estimated value of 23,13,311 kWh/month; replacement of incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs with an energy saving of around 62% and procurement of most energy-efficient electronic & electrical appliances (47%) are some of the technologies that have been implemented for energy conservation. Implementation of e-Governance and e-Office program of Govt of Karnataka, and campus management system, social media, and email-based official communications have significantly reduced the usage of papers (>70% ); a complete ban on single-use plastics; recycling of organic wastes through vermicomposting, pot-composting, biogas production; encouraging electric vehicles are some of the adopted strategies. Altogether these strategies have significantly reduced the release of greenhouse gases in and around the campus in our efforts to join with global efforts to drop carbon footprint below 2 tons by 2050. The rainwater harvesting through the rooftop catchments and check-dams contributed to ≈ 50% water conservation. The campus comprises 32.4% of its total area with natural vegetation (463192 m2) and currently with 30.8% planted vegetation (439670 m2) of the total area (1428540 m2). The campus biodiversity was further enriched by periodical tree plantation drives with special reference to the planting of fruit-yielding saplings. As an Institutional Social Responsibility (ISR), the university has been making efforts to disseminate the knowledge of eco-friendly practices, by conducting public awareness programs and publishing popular articles in regional language. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic and government-imposed lockdown to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus, the University has continued eco-friendly activities and setting up of infrastructures, by strictly following safety guidelines. Overall, our continued holistic approaches of various eco-friendly strategies, in terms of the utility of advanced technologies, eGovernance, solar energy, and rainwater harvesting, organic wastes management, recycling of solid wastes, and many others, have been implemented since its inception have significantly helped in saving energy and reduction in the emission of greenhouse gases.Keyword: Climate change; Eco-friendly strategies; Carbon footprint; Greenhouse gases
