Ecology

Out of concern for the health and comfort of our employees, we engage in environmental activities:
  • we implement the Sustainable Development Goals and European Green Deal of the European Commission,
  • we perform activities to reduce emissions and support energy efficiency in buildings,
  • we have our own Gardening Section, which takes care of green areas on our campus,
  • we act to retain and use rainwater on our campus: we collect rainwater in special containers and use it to water plants,
  • we install sanitary devices that allow to use less water,
  • we limit the consumption of plastic - on campus there are wall dispensers from which you can fill a reusable cup or bottle with water,
  • we are extending research on bees - you will find several hives in the vicinity of the buildings of the Faculty of Chemistry,
  • we opened EkoTech Center, which deals with shaping a harmonious, sustainable space of human life,
  • we are building the Eco-innovation Centre, which will be one of the most important research units in Poland dealing with the development of eco-friendly solutions and environmental technologies.
How can you help protect the environment??
