02:47a. Partner on tree planting, cleanups, or workshops to share knowledge and amplify local sustainability efforts.
02:5611. Question what is the role of renewable energy on campus?
03:01a. Renewables like solar or wind reduce reliance on fossil fuels, cut emissions, and lower long-term energy costs.
03:1212. Question how can institutions fund climate initiatives?
03:17a. Seek grants, partner with NGOs, or redirect budgets from non-sustainable practices to green projects like energy retrofits.
03:2713. Question what are nature-based solutions, and how can campuses use them?
03:33a. Solutions like green roofs, campus gardens, or reforestation absorb CO2 and enhance biodiversity.
03:42Implement them in campus landscaping.
03:4514. Question how can institutions measure progress on climate goals?
03:51a. Track metrics like energy use, waste reduction, and student engagement in sustainability programs, reporting transparently.
04:0115. Question why should schools host climate-focused events?
04:06a. Events like Earth Day fairs or sustainability workshops raise awareness, inspire action, and build community commitment.
04:1616. Question how can technology support campus climate action?
