April is Earth Month – a chance to learn more about the climate crisis, reflect on the impact of our everyday choices, and explore how we can all contribute to a more sustainable future. The OU Library offers a range of curated resources to help you build your knowledge, develop practical skills, and take positive action.
Sustainability resources
Our Sustainability collection brings together a range of resources selected by the OU Sustainability team. It’s a great place to start if you want to better understand the climate crisis, explore different perspectives, and discover the actions that can help slow climate change.
Build your green skills
The Green Skills collection is designed to help you recognise the skills you already have, and think about how those skills can contribute to a safer, healthier future. Whether you’re considering your career or just want to make a difference, these resources can help you take the next step.
Try the Digital Sustainability pathway
Did you know your online activity also has an environmental impact? The Library’s Digital Sustainability pathway (on ‘Being digital’) features short, easy-to-follow activities that help you:
- Understand the environmental impact of everyday digital tools and habits.
- Discover simple ways to reduce your digital footprint.
- Explore how digital information literacy skills can help you navigate climate information and manage climate anxiety.
It’s a practical, accessible way to build awareness and make more sustainable choices in your day-to-day digital life.
Whether you’re just getting started or looking to go further, the Library is here to support you this Earth Month and beyond.
