Haze Watch

Dear <<First name>>,

Student Led Action for Sustainable Palm Oil in NTU
Jiayang originated a project to introduce sustainable palm oil to NTU’s 40 over food establishments. Together with our staff and other student volunteers, she began with a survey to find out the receptivity of NTU students and staff to the use of sustainable palm oil on campus. The survey found that 89% of respondents in NTU survey willing to pay more than necessary for the switch to sustainable palm oil. 

Other students have joined her, their next step to survey the various NTU vendors to try and get a feel of the situation on the ground. Read more here.
