In a recent podcast, a panel of keen students shared their experiences in taking sustainability action and showcased how you can get involved too.
The standout theme of the discussion was the power of the student voice in driving change at Bath. Every student brings new energy, creativity, and unique perspectives that can help shape Bath’s sustainable culture and make a lasting difference.
Hosted by Alice Lowe from Bath’s Sustainability team, the discussion featured students from a range of disciplines:
