Each year in February, students put themselves forward to run for a full-time, paid position as a Student Leader. They campaign for votes and every Essex student will have an equal chance to 'vote like a student' and choose who they want to be elected into each of the 6 roles. This is the SU Leadership Election.

I'm bored of hearing "carbon neutral by far off year!" Let's go carbon neutral now.

Green on EVERY level

I think we're all sick to death of hearing our institutions talk about what we can do to combat climate change. There's only so much we can do as individuals, it's time we held our institutions accountable. We're not the ones spilling oil into the ocean, we're not the ones pumping toxic gases into our atmosphere and we're not the ones hesitating on the decisions that can make huge differences to our environment.

Let's hold the decision makers to account and get carbon neutral now!
