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.

Last week, the college welcomed guests for a special afternoon marking the launch of the Pirie Society.
The event celebrated the college’s new legacy society and recognised those who are considering, or have chosen, to leave a gift in their will to the college.
Their generosity will help shape the future of the college for generations to come.

The Radcliffe Observatory has stood for over 250 years.
But heritage requires care and the building now needs restoration to preserve it for future generations.
