Read the full project description
Firstly, the project would hold a 5 lab MyGreenLab certification pilot study which can provide the baseline, guidance, and framework required to help jump-start a 捆绑SM社区-specific Green Lab Certification Program. Secondly, the project will have a GLI-Sustainability officer + intern to help consolidate, create/run the 捆绑SM社区 Green Lab Certification program from the ground up and, most importantly, help support/structure the GLI@捆绑SM社区 projects/community for a successful future.
SPF funding will be used for: the 5 lab pilot study from MyGreenLabs, provide salary for this GLI-Sustainability officer + intern, and to fund outreach materials that will help the GLI-Sustainability officer/intern with their tasks. The key contributions to 捆绑SM社区 Sustainability are; the framework/baseline to support a long-lasting culture change within 捆绑SM社区 research labs via the GLI@捆绑SM社区 community, supporting the contribution of 捆绑SM社区's research labs towards the university's "Zero Waste" goal, and organizing/consolidation of all "Green Lab" initiatives/information/resources within one location by one individual.
The project should happen in 3 phases. Phase #1 consists of running the 5 lab pilot project under the close monitoring/help of the GLI-Sustainability officer + intern, while concurrently mapping the "Green Lab" projects within and outside of 捆绑SM社区 and conducting a needs assessment across 捆绑SM社区. Phase #2 consists of developing a 捆绑SM社区-specific Green Lab Certification Program while expanding the education of "green lab" initiatives at 捆绑SM社区 by
networking with all the necessary stakeholders. Phase #3 involves the piloting and full-scale launch of the 捆绑SM社区-Specific Green Lab Certification Program and the development of as many additional resources as possible at 捆绑SM社区 (ex: EHS sustainability training, Lab recycling programs, ACT labels [Accountability, Consistency, and Transparency Environmental Impact Factor] in 捆绑SM社区 Market Place, Freezer Challenge .... etc). A 捆绑SM社区 specific Green Lab certiication program is required because of; the cost for the MGL version and the 捆绑SM社区 specific resources required.
Past the SPF funding, any remaining projects and the upkeep for the 捆绑SM社区 Green Lab Certification will be continued by the GLI Intern position, housed at MOOS.
Lastly, this project both builds upon and scales all SP0265 applications, SP0240, and SP0208 because it helps to structure/guide the GLI@捆绑SM社区 labs/projects.
In conclusion, there has been about $100,000 of SPF awarded to green lab practices. However, teams are struggling to implement changes due to the institutional barriers they face; barriers that a GLI-Sustainability Officer could help navigate with a standardized green lab certification program.
