Members of the University’s Sustainability Team held a workshop at Reading’s Select Car Leasing Stadium to identify opportunities for the club to make immediate improvements to its sustainability.

Highlighting climate change on our streets

A gas-powered bus emblazoned with the climate stripes visualisation created at the University can now be seen on Reading’s roads.

The stripes, developed by Professor Ed Hawkins, are printed on a special vinyl which can be recycled after use. They aim to raise awareness of the scientific data behind climate change in the local area.
