Throughout the year Imperial staff and students can take part in a variety of environmental sustainability-related events both on campus and in the local area. Events include gardening sessions, upcycling sessions, webinars, climate cafes, citizen science surveys and film screenings.
Imperial’s sustainability events calendar
We have created a calendar of environmental sustainability-related events coordinated by Imperial teams and societies, to make it easier for students and staff to see how they can get involved.
You can view the sustainability events calendar online, or you can copy this link to the ICS calendar file and then subscribe in Outlook. Microsoft has a help article about subscribing to a calendar in Outlook. We recommend subscribing so that the calendar stays updated (rather than just importing the ICS file into Outlook).
If you are planning an environmental sustainability-related event and would like it to be promoted on the calendar, then please complete the request form.

Recognition for participation
Students can get recognised for the extra-curricular environmental sustainability-related events they participate in by signing up to our Sustainable Imperial Student Ambassador scheme.
By taking part in some of these events staff can also achieve points for the Green Impact programme for example participating in our gardening sessions on campus.
Highlights from recent events and campaigns
We had a blast at Sustainability Fortnight 2025! From plogging to clothing upcycling, from gardening sessions to sustainable lab tours, thank you to the students and staff that got involved and embraced the opportunity to learn about living a more sustainable lifestyle. Thank you also to all our event contributors for making Sustainability Fortnight happen. If you have any ideas for Sustainability Fortnight 2026 do get in touch at sustainable@imperial.ac.uk.
