Sustainability

When it comes to the world’s climate, in the past decade, planet Earth keeps sending us its summer siren’s call. According to NASA, nineteen of the hottest years have occurred since 2000, with 2016 and 2020 tied for the hottest on record. This summer is already making worldwide headlines, with England scorching beyond 40 degrees Celsius.

A 40-hour course on sustainability (officially recognized for remuneration) was attended by 20 staff members from various university faculties and campuses. This is the second time the course was made available.

The course focussed on sustainability, environment, envronmental policies, and more, and included a field trip to the Terrace of Muslala at the Klal Center.

Hebrew University students and faculty participated in the national climate parade on the 29.10.2021. The parade aims to promote the demand for a better life and a better future for us, for future generations, and for all life on our planet.

As in previous parades, this year's delegation representing Hebrew University consisted of students, administrative staff members, and faculty.
