Green Recovery Now
Green Recovery Now is an Oxford University student-led movement.
The group say: ‘We feel passionately that the climate crisis must be tackled urgently and, being university students, we want to make use of research and connections with researchers to support the argument for a global green and fair recovery from COVID-19. There are currently more than 30 Oxford University students in seven different teams. The intention is reaching out to students around the world. We want to work together as a global movement to put pressure on our governments to invest in climate-friendly policies to boost economic recovery from the COVID pandemic, based on the best scientific research.’
Green Recovery Now was born in Green Templeton College during the summer of 2020.

🎓 Today we celebrated our newest graduates!
Guest speaker and alumna Kate Eisenstein (MSc History of Science, Medicine and Technology, 2010) reminded us:
‘Your biggest contribution might not stem from what you know, but from the new questions you dare to ask.’
Congratulations to all who graduated today! Welcome to the Green Templeton Alumni community! 🎉
It was wonderful to see so many alumni in Hong Kong for the inaugural dinner of the Green Templeton Hong Kong Alumni Society. A fantastic start to what promises to be a thriving community.
Enjoying a sunny autumnal walk around college ☀️🍂🍁
