We are going green

At SERC we are committed to being environmentally conscious and working towards being greener and more sustainable in everything we do. GoGreen includes SERC's ethical behaviours, social responsibility, and protection of the environment. SERC wishes to move away from being passively compliant to proactively 'green' and intends to achieve this through the use of a Green Social Change Agenda that has a clear vision, defined strategies and measurable achievements.
