About the Transition to Zero Pollution initiative
Transition to Zero Pollution is one of the first initiatives of Imperial College London’s new Academic Strategy. The initiative captures Imperial’s vision to transform the way we think about pollution, bringing together ideas around resource management, health and environmental impacts, socio-economic and human behaviour in a ‘whole system’ approach. Imperial are building on work being done to tackle greenhouse gas emissions and deliver net zero carbon, and going beyond that to build a sustainable zero pollution future.
