Here at the University of Reading we are committed to embedding sustainable practices across the University's operations to become a leader in global environmental sustainability. You can learn more about the University's 2020-2026 Environmental Sustainability Strategy on the sustainability website, alongside the University's commitment to becoming Net Carbon Zero by 2030.
The University of Reading has been ranked as the fourth university in the UK for sustainability in the 2024/25 People & Planet University League table. This was achieved after we made progress in criteria including ethical banking, workers' rights and carbon reduction. The University was also recognised for managing carbon emissions, providing climate education resources and our sustainable food policy.
