DiSCo Lazio is concretely committed to reducing the environmental impact of its services, adopting sustainable practices that involve the entire management of university residences and canteens.
Among the main initiatives are the use of renewable energy, the energy efficiency of the buildings, the promotion of low environmental impact menus with zero km products, and the total elimination of plastic in the canteens.
These actions are part of a broader project to protect the environment and combat climate change, aimed at guaranteeing students modern, environmentally sustainable and responsible services
Plastic-free canteens
DiSCo Lazio has also adopted plastic-free measures in its university canteens to promote environmental sustainability: in all our canteens, plastic plates and glasses and single-purpose cutlery have been replaced with eco-friendly materials.
