Student Switch Off

Student Switch Off Halls Sustainability Campaign

Reduce your impact on the climate crisis by taking personal action in halls this year through Imperial halls of residence Student Switch Off campaign.

Residents of Imperial halls will compete to be the most sustainable! The hall which engages the most with the Student Switch Off (e.g. residents pledging to the campaign, taking part in the climate quizzes, training as ambassadors) will win… a £250 fund for the hall committee!

How to take personal action in halls as well as win prizes this year:

  1. Save energy by switching off lights and electrical appliances such as laptops when not in use. In the kitchen only fill the kettle with the water you need (the more you boil, the more energy you use) and put a lid on your pan to cook your food quicker.
  2. Save water by not leaving the tap running unnecessarily and reducing your shower time.

Taking action on the climate crisis in halls has a huge impact. Last year the Student Switch Off campaign reached 82,600 students who saved 860,00kWh of electricity, which is the equivalent of powering a lightbulb for over 6,500 years!
