On June 5, World Environment Day, People & Planet will be releasing the Green League 2007 - a ranking table for higher education institutions ranking them on their environmental performance.

Universities will be awarded a first, 2:1, 2:2, pass - or even a fail. Who will be the greenest in the land (and the least greenest)?

On a similar note, the Environmental Association of Universities and Colleges (the body for HE and FE to push for progress on green issues) announced its Green Gown awards for 2006-07, (see a write-up in the Times newspaper) for environmental improvement at universities and colleges across various criteria such as student initiatives, sustainable construction, course content, continuous improvement and energy and water efficiency.
