  3. GreenAmbassador CBS Goes Green Background information CBS' ambitious green goal and the implementation of the green strategy are based on the condition that everyone at CBS gets the opportunity to contribute. To make sure that information and knowledge sharing can be communicated to everyone, all interested staff members are invited to become a Green Ambassador (GA). What is a GA? A GA is interested in CBS, the environment and the climate. A GA is committed to trying to impact the local working routines and communicating best practice all over CBS. A CBS GA will receive a greengoodiebag with: A sustainablet-shirt A refillableglasswaterbottle A GA diploma Infokit A list of GA’s will be posted on Share. They will continuously be informed of new initiatives, experience and knowledge.

  4. GreenAmbassador CBS Goes Green What can the Green Ambassador do? A GA can help by: Installing a localrecycling centre Ordering and installing energy-saving plug boxes locally (send an e-mail to savingenergy@cbs.dk) Placing cardboard boxes for paper recycling (available at the janitors' room) Making sure that the janitors are contacted for waste pickup Encouraging colleagues to order water for meetings in jugs via Spisestuerne Wearing a green t-shirt as often as possible Communicatingbestpracticelocally Reporting waste of water, windows not being properly sealed, etc. (to savingenergy@cbs.dk) Collecting and communicating new initiatives and ideas (mail to go.mo@cbs.dk ) In overall terms, being a green role model for colleagues. Important focus areas The Green Office communicates knowledge of best practice We will be holding a Green Day once a month, where we will be sending out green advice to all Ambassadors, including background information and recommendations for implementation.

  5. Student GreenAmbassador CBS Goes Green To become a Student Green Ambassador (SGA), all you have to do is come by the Green Office and sign the Sustainability Pledge. To help inform and spread the word about initiatives as well as help come up with good ideas, all interested students are invited to become SGA’s. What is a Student Green Ambassador A SGA is a CBS student interested in the environment and climate. A SGA is committed to having an impact on campus and communicating best practice all over CBS. A CBS SGA will receive a green goodie bag with: A sustainable t-shirt A refillable glass water bottle A SGA diploma Info kit / how to guide By being a SGA you also join a social network and get career credit. At the end of the semester all SGA’s will have to write a short progress report about the work they have done during the semester and they will receive a SGA Diploma for their involvement.   Furthermore SGA’s will be invited to the SGA dropbox, where there will be a list of all the members. The dropbox can be used to coordinate initiatives and share documents. The SGA’s will continuously be informed of new initiatives, best practices and knowledge.

  6. Student GreenAmbassador CBS Goes Green Vision: To minimize the adverse impacts of CBS on the global environment To become a role model for responsible leadership for universities and business schools in Denmark and Europe through our research, education, interaction with business and society, and the management of our campus facilities Mission: The CBS Green Strategy focuses on reducing adverse environmental impact by reducing energy consumption increasing recycling and reducing waste reducing non-green on-campus transportation increasing responsible purchasing developing carbon-neutral meetings and conferences reducing paper consumption

  7.

Once a year, one of CBS‘ SGA’s will be awarded a prize for being particularly green in his/her area. Once a semester there will be an event with further networking opportunities rounded up with festivitas where all SGA’s are invited.
