Welcome to the Ethics and Environment Section of the website.

You will find information here about the kind of projects and campaigns that the Union gets up to in this area and there is also the ‘Green Guide’ an information source for University of Essex Students who want to try and live in a green and ethical way. On here you will find information about ethical and environmental places to shops, products to buy, ways to save energy and reduce your Carbon footprint, tips on Greener travelling and much more.

Contact the officer at ethics@essex.ac.uk or drop by the non-sabb office on theSU corridor.
