Green campus & environment policy
Green Campus
To promote sustainable and environmentally friendly practices on campus, a green campus should be characterized by education and environmental practices. With a green campus, the college can take charge of reinventing its eco-friendly culture and creating innovative concepts to address the environment, social or economic challenges faced by humanity.
The objective of Nandha College of Nursing is to enhance its facilities by providing electricity, water, and sanitation without any interference. To foster a campus that is environmentally conscious and sustainable, faculty, staff, and students must work together to promote environmental consciousness and encourage ecological culture in the surrounding community.

Rain water Harvesting:
Rainwater irrigation schemes in India use the concept of conserving rainwater as it comes and have the following advantages:
-
Helps satisfy ever-increasing demand for water.
-
Improves freshwater consistency and quantities.
-
It helps to control urban flooding.
-
It helps to minimize soil erosion.
Water is used for dining, canteen, toilet, laboratory and gardening purposes. The institute ensures that water wastage is reduced at an optimum degree by maintenance of taps and pipes.
Pedestrian friendly Road:
The entire campus is meticulously built, with black-top roads and pedestrian-friendly sidewalks.
Restricted Entry of Vehicles:
Our College provides safe and secure campus for its students and staff. The campus is protected from all sides by construction of concrete compound wall. CCTV cameras are installed for 24 hours surveillance. Besides this, the security guards are posted for 24 hours at the main entrance of the campus and at the entry points of institutes.
Our College is also well equipped with safety requirements like Hydrant, sand bucket and sufficient mounting of fire extinguisher at each lab, corridors, central store, animal house and wherever required and also Wheel chair ramp for diabled persons.
Plastic free campus:
Education regarding the need to reduce plastic use is being provided to both faculty and students. "Don't use Plastic" signs have been posted prominently throughout the campus.
Paperless – save trees:
To minimize the quantity of paper required in distribution, all employee circulars are available online. Course plans, lesson plans, and academic schedules are sent to the students via group email. Students are advised to use both sides of the paper to make records. All terminals equipped with printers are utilizing the double-sided printing feature. The use of one-sided printed paper is encouraged as an environmentally responsible practice. Employees do their rough work on one side printed sheets.
Tree Planting:
The green atmosphere of the Campus is mostly due to tree planting, which protects the ecosystem. Annual tree-planting programs are organized by the ECO club to increase the quantity of green space on campus. Saplings are planted to raise students' awareness of the environment.
Conserve Water and Electricity:
Electricity conservation is currently essential. Staff and students are instructed to conserve energy as much as possible. In our Campus, We are using LED lights and bulbs for saving electricity. For Seamless Electricity, We are having a generator facility in our college to avoid electricity delay while working. Water conservation is currently essential. To do this, thoughtfully placed rainwater collection trenches have been excavated to collect rainfall. Rainfall is appropriately directed to replenish groundwater reserves and reduce our dependency on municipal water sources. Staff members and students are both encouraged to conserve water.
