1 Towards a Green and Sustainable IIT Kanpur Saving the environment is not only about introducing energy saving devices. It is about changing people s mindset and making them want to save the environment College and universities, as leaders of innovation in our society, have the potential to demonstrate sustainable principles in their campus operations and policies. Their examples can provide a road map for others to follow.
2
3 Current scenario Student/faculty/staff strength increasing Great stress on resources and ecology. Lowered water table. Large amounts of garbage. Huge energy requirement. Increased demand for space/land. Flora and fauna under threat Birdwatchers note decrease in bird+peacock population. Reduction in neelgai, monitor lizards etc. Focuses attention on IIT K s future as a Green and Sustainable campus.
4 Green campus: Why? No brainer! Green means trees, NOT lawns. A green environment alleviates greatly the city s negative impact. Trees insulate us from external noise and pollution. prevent erosion and conserve ground water. lower temperature. Campus always a few degrees cooler. Supports diverse fauna. Makes IIT K special. For families and students.
5 Sustainability: Why? Again, a no-brainer! Sustainability means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Make our students and children appreciative and sensitive about this critical issue facing our country.
6
7 Examples: IIT Bombay Committed to be a model campus in environmental conservation. Green Campus Initiative Committee makes an Eco-policy. Dedicated No-vehicle zones in academic areas. Only electronic communication. Energy efficient ACs and solar water heaters. AC-heat used to heat water. Re-starting two existing biogas plants for solid wastes. Solar-powered streetlights and Water recycling plants. Its very own forest!
8
9 Example: Chinese U. of HK Comprehensive Eco-policy. (SHOW) Storm drains, sewers and grease traps to trap natural rainwater and segregate waste water and oily waste to prevent water contamination. Properly disposes chemical and bio-wastes. Recycles heavily. Environmental Guideline for contractors. Aggressively protects local flora and fauna. (SHOW)
10
11 Example: Cornell University Proper bio-medical, veterinary and chemical waste management. Energy efficiency lighting. Lake source cooling. Solar water heating. Green Development: Efficient land and space use, efficient new construction, retrofitting older buildings. Cornell s purchased energy same since 1990!
12 Rapid Assessment of Biodiversity on the Campus of Indian Institute of Technology - Madras Human impact seems to be at its peak only in and around habitats inhabited by the endangered Blackbuck or the resident and migratory birds. Any further construction in these areas can only be detrimental. Littering and improper disposal of waste is a common practice on the Campus. R eport of the Study Commissioned by The Director Indian Institute of Technology Madras Chennai If human impacts have to be minimized, certain strong decisions need to be made. Areas earmarked as conservation/wilderness areas need to be kept exclusive and no human use (even occasional) should be6permitted. Submitted by "#!"$%&%'!(!%')*%#!&)+,-$)#&!$#$-$"-$.%!

13 Almost every modern University has a separate and very active body that oversees that the campus remain green and sustainable.
14
15 Suggestions: Land Master plan! Delineates permanent green (forest) areas. Will reduce neelgai venturing into residential area. Restrict grass cutting to only around roads/paths. NO further horizontal spread. (map) Grow vertically. Replace/retrofit older inefficient buildings. Eliminate large parking lots. This is a residential campus. Maintain an accurate and transparent space audit. Efficient use of available space essential!
16 Suggestions: Construction Green building codes be put in place and rigorously imposed. Examples: Buildings harvest water and have proper waste disposal. Buildings have a minimum number of floors, say eight. Buildings have adequate capacity for vertical expansion Be centrally air-conditioning when required. Buildings be hazard resistant: earthquake + fire. Buildings have proper ventilation and natural temperature control. Construction employ environmentally friendly materials. The functionality of the building be kept in mind at design stage. Only architects with proven green track records be hired. Contractors be required to follow green practices. And labor laws.
17 Suggestions: Water Recycle all water! Drinking water: for cooking, bathing, washing. Not for washing cars, watering lawns, etc. Eliminate fresh-watered ornamental grass/lawns. IWD: Water recycling can supply 60% of present lawns. Replace by tree groves and/or playgrounds. Create large surface water body behind Hall 10. Supply campus water needs rather than bore-wells. Stock with fish. Will be environmentally very beneficial. Water meters for hostels, academic and residential areas. All buildings harvest water.
18 Suggestions: Energy Aim for a Carbon-neutral campus. Solar hot-water systems and Solar street lights. Energy efficient air-conditioning. Centralized, chilled-water based cooling? Maintain transparent and current energy audit of various academic buildings, departments, offices, hostels, etc. All buildings save energy by efficient technology Natural lighting, proper ventilation, solar heating, double-glazed windows, etc. Lights with motion sensors, timers, master switches, etc.
19 Suggestions: Pollution Recycle! In-house Bio-gas/composting plants. Move to maximum paperless working. Proper disposal of chemical/hazardous waste Presently a very serious problem on campus. Plan and implement policies to promote a pedestrianand bike-friendly campus. Enforce zero-plastic bag policy. Burning of grass, leaves, etc. be stopped.
20 Suggestions: General Targets to departments and halls to reduce energy+water consumption. Student participation in institutional decision making on sustainability-related issues. Have sustainability-related mission statements, strategic plans, master plans. Need an independent apex body to oversee campus sustainability and ecology. Have presence and publicity in line with green Universities like Cornell.
