We know that global warming is the defining challenge and opportunity of our generation. We also know
that changing light-bulbs and watching films will not be sufficient to solve the problem. We need
bold and comprehensive institutional change that can achieve real emissions reductions and set a
powerful example for the rest of society.
The ACUPCC is a presidential and institutional commitment to create a plan, including timelines
and milestones, to reduce and ultimately neutralize greenhouse gas emissions on campus and provide
the education to help all society do the same. In
keeping with the tradition of academic leadership, the presidents who have already signed are
joining the first collective effort by any major sector of society to set a long-term goal of climate
neutrality - not just a reduction in emissions.
|
This initiative is a way to ensure that real change happens on campus and that other sectors of society
are challenged to step up - with the transparency that will hold presidents accountable to their commitments.
If you are
serious about the Campus Climate Challenge, getting your President or Chancellor to sign the ACUPCC is the
campaign goal to set, not only for real campus change but also for building momentum for broader
institutional change and a successful climate movement.
Student groups from around the country are rallying around ACUPCC to drive climate action.
To make your campaign a success here are resources for you.
