We are going green

'Going Green' includes SERC's ethical behaviours. SERC's social responsibility, and SERC's 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.
