As the GW4 universities of Bath, Bristol, Cardiff and Exeter work to reach net zero carbon by 2030, the GW4 Living Labs pilot engages students, researchers, non-academic staff, local authorities, community organisations, and industry in developing Living Labs for Net Zero Transformation.

This project focuses on emissions from our supply chains and travel (Scope 3 emissions), which represent our greatest opportunity to cut emissions. If you are working on a similar project, you can add your project to our map of existing living lab-style projects across GW4.

Our final project workshop, on 28 February 2023, will look at Scope 3 emissions in Southwest England and South Wales. GW4 colleagues will work with external partners to identify opportunities to collaborate on reducing these emissions.
