SDG 12 - Responsible Consumption and Production

Introduction

At Redeemer's University, our mission for Sustainable Development Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production is to promote sustainable practices that minimize waste and encourage ethical consumption. Our committed researchers explore innovative ways to reduce environmental impact through sustainable production systems and efficient resource management.

The university implements an ethical sourcing policy, ensuring that goods and services are procured responsibly. Additionally, we have a policy for the minimization of disposable items on campus and actively engage in waste tracking to monitor and reduce waste generation.

By integrating research, education, and action, Redeemer's University is dedicated to advancing responsible consumption and production practices that contribute to a sustainable future.

The article explores the extraction, properties, and environmental impacts of humic substances derived from unconventional resources like coal, oil shale, and bitumen. These organic materials play a crucial role in improving soil health, enhancing nutrient availability, and remediating environmental pollution. By using alternative organic sources, the study promotes sustainable production and resource management, directly contributing to the goals of Sustainable Development Goal 12 (SDG 12), which advocates for responsible consumption and production. The research highlights the importance of eco-friendly practices in addressing global environmental challenges. For further reading, refer to Ore et al.

The article discusses the challenges and prospects of renewable energy, particularly bioethanol and biodiesel production, in Nigeria. It highlights the significant potential of local resources such as sugarcane, cassava, and plant seed oils for biofuel production, which could help reduce reliance on fossil fuels. By promoting renewable energy sources, Nigeria can address energy scarcity and environmental degradation, while also fostering economic growth. This aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 12 (SDG 12), which advocates for responsible consumption and production by ensuring the efficient use of natural resources.
