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 看片视频-specific Green Lab Certification Program. Secondly, the project will have a GLI-Sustainability officer + intern to help consolidate, create/run the 看片视频 Green Lab Certification program from the ground up and, most importantly, help support/structure the GLI@看片视频 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 看片视频 Sustainability are; the framework/baseline to support a long-lasting culture change within 看片视频 research labs via the GLI@看片视频 community, supporting the contribution of 看片视频'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 看片视频 and conducting a needs assessment across 看片视频. Phase #2 consists of developing a 看片视频-specific Green Lab Certification Program while expanding the education of "green lab" initiatives at 看片视频 by
networking with all the necessary stakeholders. Phase #3 involves the piloting and full-scale launch of the 看片视频-Specific Green Lab Certification Program and the development of as many additional resources as possible at 看片视频 (ex: EHS sustainability training, Lab recycling programs, ACT labels [Accountability, Consistency, and Transparency Environmental Impact Factor] in 看片视频 Market Place, Freezer Challenge .... etc). A 看片视频 specific Green Lab certiication program is required because of; the cost for the MGL version and the 看片视频 specific resources required.

Past the SPF funding, any remaining projects and the upkeep for the 看片视频 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@看片视频 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.
