Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
It is important to note that UCLA was an early actor in many areas of sustainability, especially in energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We began installing energy efficient lighting in the 1990s and built our cogeneration plant in 1994. We have had a vanpool program and have been addressing sustainable transportation for over 25 years. Since 1990 our emissions have stayed relatively flat despite a 40% growth in campus square footage. This translates into a reduction in GHG emissions per square foot of 26% since 1990. We are years ahead of schedule to meet University of California and State of California greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. Because STARS uses a 2005 baseline for comparison, it does not fully capture this accomplishment.
