奔跑吧！全员加速向着绿色校园！
“温肯在可持续发展方面一直在努力，从校园现代化的建筑和基础设施到校园、学生、教职工的国际视野……”党委副书记、副校长郑晓东博士在商学院Rob Kim Marjerison教授的organizational behavior夏季课堂上说道。

UNEP的Greening Universities项目
今年夏天，温肯学生参与了联合国环境规划署 (UNEP) 的一个项目——Greening Universities（绿色大学），此项目旨在让大学校园变得更加绿色和可持续。这些学生均为温州肯恩大学商务与公共管理学院商业咨询团队 (WBCG) 的成员。自 2017 年以来，WBCG已与温州地区的十多家企业合作，提供包括数据收集和分析在内的咨询和业务支持服务。团队使命是通过支持和鼓励温州地区的商业转型、经济增长和发展，与当地企业建立联系，帮助和支持他们增加价值，并与社区建立联系。

该项目由学校党委副书记、副校长郑晓东博士和Rob Kim Marjerison教授担任顾问。项目目标是探索温州肯恩大学如何引领校园可持续发展，并围绕如何带领温肯学生、教职工参与和支持可持续校园行动，同时为其他大学可持续教育发展提供示范。学生通过海报和视频形式来展示他们的想法，内容包括绿色交通、绿色生活、如何支持校园内生物的平衡生态系统、回收计划等。比如campus garden小组秉承“food to waste,waste to plant,plant to food again”的理念，通过摩尔庄园的动画形式展现了如何用堆肥桶把校园里的厨余转变为资源，循环利用。
课堂场景
参与此次项目的学生杨歆雯表示，每天下午大家一起讨论想法，制作方案，拍摄视频，设计海报，为温肯设计独一无二的绿色校园计划。短短的三周里收获的不仅是丰富的理论知识，更有在实践中看到团队成果的真切成就感。郑晓东博士高度赞扬了团队表现，学生所展示的演讲和想法给他留下了非常深刻的印象，期待在秋季学期将这项活动继续开展下去。
温肯一直致力于绿色校园建设，在校园规划上以“校园、家园、公园三位一体”为理念，打造“包容性、创新性、智能性、生态性”的国际化教育社区。
过去十年，温肯在校园规划建设、运营管理中努力实现能源清洁低碳化利用、提升能源资源利用效率，如杂水处理站、垃圾分类、清洁能源等举措为实现碳中和社会中发挥先锋引领作用。温肯还积极推进将绿色理念融入实践与教学，把校园建设成绿色生态实验室，同时将可持续发展理念融入各个学科。

同时，在校园中积极营造绿色文化，倡导校园低碳生活方式，积极开展低碳科普教育和科技创新活动，形成绿色风尚，发出中国绿色发展好声音。

Future University --- Green Campus, WKU is always in action
“WKU has been working on sustainability, from the modern buildings and infrastructure of the campus to the international awareness of our students, staff and faculty…” Dr. Zheng said.
This is an organizational behavior class taught by Rob Kim Marjerison.This summer some WKU students worked on a project for the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)- Greening Universities. The students are part of the Wenzhou Business Consultancy Group (WBCG) at WKU CBPM. Since 2017 the WKU WBCG has worked with over a dozen businesses in the Wenzhou area to provide consulting and business support services including data gathering and analysis. The Mission of the WBCG is to connect with local businesses, to assist and support them, to add value, and to interconnect with the community by supporting and encouraging business transformation, economic growth and development in the greater Wenzhou area.
The project was led by Vice Chancellor Dr. Xiaodong (Tony) Zheng and Prof. Rob Kim Marjerison as advisor. The students presented their ideas on Friday 6 July at CBPM with posters and video presentations. The goal of the project is to explore ways for WKU to lead in sustainability for university campuses. The presentations focused on ways for students, faculty and staff at WKU to support the initiative for WKU to be a leading sustainable campus and provide an example to other universities on the importance of sustainable education and development. The presentations included Green Talent, how to develop leaders, Green Transportation, ways to develop on-campus transportation with low carbon footprint, Green Living, how to support a balanced ecosystem of living things on campus, an enhanced recycling program and others. For example, the campus garden group, in line with the concept of "food to waste, waste to plant, plant to food again", showed how to use compost bins to turn food waste on campus into resources for recycling.
Yang Xinwen, a student who participated in this project, said that every afternoon they discussed ideas, made plans, made videos, designed posters and a unique green campus plan for WKU. What they gained in the short three weeks was not only the rich theoretical knowledge, but also the real sense of accomplishment of seeing the team's results in practice.After reviewing the ideas Dr. Zheng added that he was impressed with the quality and thoughtfulness of the students’ work, and that he looked forward to continuing the work in the Fall semester.
Over the past decade, WKU has actively promoted the integration of green concepts into practice and teaching, building the campus into a green eco-lab, while integrating sustainability concepts into various disciplines. WKU has been committed to green campus construction, striving to achieve clean and low-carbon use of energy and improve energy resource utilization efficiency in campus planning and construction, and playing a pioneering and leading role in achieving a carbon-neutral society. At the same time, WKU actively create a green culture on campus, advocate a low-carbon lifestyle, actively carry out low-carbon science education and technology innovation activities to create a green culture, and make a good voice for China's green development.
