A brief summary of the climate plan’s long-term goals:
EICCD has developed a Climate Action Plan as a requirement of the ACUPCC. This public document can be found at www.presidentsclimatecommitment.org, as well as on our institutional website(listed below). EICCD has committed to becoming climate neutral by 2035. EICCD will progress towards climate neutrality through a reduction in energy demand and usage, a reduction in emissions from staff and student commuting, programs to provide our students, staff, and local community with a basic knowledge of sustainability issues, and through an operational philosophy which considers the economic, social, and enviornmental impacts of our decisions.
