Old faucets and facilities have also been replaced with modern water-saving systems in the bathrooms of faculty and administrative staff, contributing to increased water efficiency on campus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the green spaces and landscaping within the college, a drip irrigation system has been implemented, ensuring optimal water utilization and reducing waste, in line with environmental sustainability standards.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the college responded to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic by implementing special programs, including the establishment of multiple handwashing and sanitizing stations on campus, as well as equipping several government departments with these stations. This step reflects the college&#8217;s contribution to promoting public health and rationalizing water consumption during intensive sanitization periods.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These efforts are part of the College of Science&#8217;s strategy to promote responsible water use and conserve this vital resource, supporting the university&#8217;s vision for a green and sustainable campus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The College of Science places great importance on water management and rationalization of its use within the framework of sustainable development, by adopting programs &#8230; <a class=\"cz_readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/?p=23881&#038;lang=en\"><i class=\"fa czico-107-web-link\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span>\u0627\u0642\u0631\u0623 \u0623\u0643\u062b\u0631<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":82,"featured_media":23883,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[224,165,210],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23881","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-education-and-scientific-research","category-latest-updates","category-waste-management"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23881","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/82"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=23881"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23881\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23884,"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23881\/revisions\/23884"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/23883"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=23881"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=23881"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sust.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=23881"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
