Going green at the NRC: Using recycled materials
Since our last update we received a delivery of new pens made from recycled materials. These will be available for all to use.
We have new posters from our sponsors Menicon. Their lenses are made from recycled materials and their flat pack packing is made from 100% recycled plastics.
We have stopped placing plastic water bottles in our student lunch bags during exam season and we are encouraging students to use our water fountains and reusable cups. We have also liaised with our local suppliers who provide our food deliveries to minimise the use of packaging and cutlery they provide when supplying our goods.
