ntroducing Australia's first carshare pod on a university campus!Actually, Australia's first two pods! Morris the Yaris and Fred the Yaris now live at the University of NSW's Kensington campus. UNSW is the first university in the country to give their students and staff an extra sustainable transport option. It will help reduce congestion on campus and will eventually mean less need for allocating valuable space for parking. The cars are available to UNSW students, staff and of course, to any other GoGet member.If you work or study at a university and would like this service on campus, forward this newsletter to your Vice-Chancellor. Change travel patterns towards more sustainable modes. Encourage & make it easier to change, & discouragement initiatives to make car driving less attractive. Encourage the use of cleaner vehicles and reward sustainable transport choices. Environmental pricing: cheaper fees & premium parking for cleaner vehicles Reduce the need to travel by supporting telecommuting and video conferencing based on the star rating of vehicles in the Federal Government’s Green Vehicle Guide <www.greenvehicleguide.gov.au> will be lower than for vehicles which emit high levels of greenhouse gas and air pollution.
cleaning for health without harming the environment or ourselves, green cleaning specifications have been developed especially for UNSW. Our cleaning contractor, Perpetual Property Care meets a range of high standards including the elimination of chemicals wherever possible, the use of Good Environmental Choice Australia certified cleaning products and the use of recycled content paper products. The green cleaning strategy pioneered by UNSW has been shared with other Universities and commercial institutions and is rapidly becoming an industry sustainability benchmark.
