Sustainable Labs Working Group meeting

Thursday, September 8, 2016 14:00to15:30
Room 430, 3610 McTavish, 3610 McTavish, Montreal, QC, CA

The Sustainable Labs Working Group (SLWG, de facto working group of the University Lab Safety Committee) was established in October 2014, bringing together students, staff and faculty working to embed sustainability considerations into lab processes.

Vision for sustainable labs at McGill: "Engage the University community; promote and recognize efforts to reduce material, water, and energy consumption while maximizing cost savings; improve safety and accessibility through optimizing operations, training and awareness." (2015)

This aligns with Action 3 “Sustainable labs” of the University’s Priority Actions for the Vision 2020 Sustainability Strategy (2014-2016).

The SLWG meets approximately every 6 weeks. Meetings are open to all in the University community interested in contributing to the discussion. To RSVP and/or to propose agenda items, please contact us.
