In today's world, it cannot be denied that many environmental problems have turned into biological crises with adverse social and welfare consequences. Happenings that have been the product of irresponsible and unfair treatment and exploitation of our nature, resources, and environment, and we are all somehow responsible for the current situation. Therefore, we can all play an effective role in getting out of it.

Greenization and moving in line with health-oriented guidelines can lead to the dynamism of a university in the first step and then in the second step can achieve a green and healthy society.
