Read our Annual Carbon Report for 2024/25
We’re pleased to share Nottingham Trent Students’ Union’s Annual Carbon Report for 2024/25.
The report highlights the progress we made and the challenges we faced over the 2024/25 academic year. Sharing our emissions data helps us be transparent about where we stand, better understand our environmental impact and identify where we can make further reductions.
A few key findings from the report
- Our total emissions for the year were 2,201 tonnes of CO₂e.
- 85% of our carbon footprint came from our supply chain, highlighting the significant role our purchasing decisions play in our environmental impact.
- Waste emissions fell by 79% compared with our 2021/22 baseline. We’ve moved away from sending our waste to landfill and now send it for incineration with energy recovery.
What’s next?
Looking ahead, we’ll set out the steps we need to take to reach net zero and explore opportunities to reduce emissions across our supply chain. We’ll also continue working with students, staff and partners across all our campuses to put those plans into practice.
We’d love to hear what you think of the report and what changes you’d like to see as we work towards a more sustainable students’ union.
