In 2009, we launched a campaign entitled It's Better OFF to raise awareness about climate change and its causes as well as the practical things we can all do to improve our environment, locally, nationally and worldwide. In 2011 It’s Better OFF was awarded a Green Gown for promoting positive behaviour. |

In October 2011 It’s Better OFF evolved, joining up with the NUS led sustainability Accreditation scheme ‘Green Impact’. Simply put, Green Impact provides a structure for teams within departments and buildings to complete simple actions earn points and receive accreditation for the sustainable achievements they make. |
