Electricity, Air travel, Student and Staff Transportation, natural
gas, campus fleet, water, solid waste, etc.
 Energy Saving building projects: Heating, ventilation, air
conditioning, Lighting.
 LEEDS certified building projects
 Waste diversion rate: the amount of solid waste sent to landfills
by the campus
 Reduction of fuel used by commuter to campus
 Recycled of Copy paper reduction.
 Student taking focus study on sustainability
 Faculty engaged in sustainability research
 Student movement and activities on Green Campus Initiative
 Rankings by third-parties: STAR, Green League, Green Report
Card, etc.
Ranking as a Measurement for HE?

Efficient allocation of limited resources

Accountability towards funders and society
Transparency of results
Main World University Rankings:

 Why UI Greenmetric for
Sustainability Measurement ?
• A voluntary, opt-in self-reporting framework
• A guide for advancing sustainability in
education, waste, water, transportation,
policy, and energy and climate change.
• A common standard, easy and simple tools to
measure sustainability in higher education.
• Promotes an understanding of sustainability
(social, economic and environmental
dimensions).

 World University Ranking Conference at UI April

16th 2009
 Speakers: Isidro Aguillo (Webometrics), Angela
Yung-Chi Hou (HEEACT), and Alex Usher

Economy, Social, Environment (Triple bottom line
of Sustainability) + Culture
 Basic Principles

 It is open to global participation

 It is accessible to HEIs in both the developed
and developing world
 It should contribute to academic discourse on
sustainability in education and the greening
of campuses
 It should encourage university-led social
change with regard to sustainability goals.
 Policy and Procedure for Climate Change
mitigation
 Aim of the Ranking

To encourage universities in the world to look and self

asses their policies and direction in relation with the effort
to combat global climate change:
• Reservation of energy
• Water
• Waste recycling program
• Transportation
• Education
• Keeping the campus green
• Involving all stakeholders to change their behavior in
order to keep a sustainable environment.

To provide the result of online survey regarding the

current condition and policies related to Green Campus
and sustainability, in the Universities all over the world.
Methodology UI GreenMetric 2013

Important Criteria in sustainability:

 collection of a basic profile of the size of the
university and its zoning profile, whether urban,
suburban, rural. Beyond this we want to see the
degree of green space.
Criteria  Information concerning electricity consumption
because of its link to our carbon footprint.
 transport, water usage, waste management, etc.
Content Title  How the university is responding to or dealing with
the issue of sustainability through policies, actions,
and communication.
 Sustainability education and research.

• Scoring for each item will be numeric so that our data

can be processed statistically.
Scoring • Simple counts of things
• Responses on a scale of some sort.
