Climate Neutral Cornell:
Implications of the President's Climate Commitment
Monday, April 16, 2007: 5:30 - 7:00pm
Lewis Auditorium, Goldwin Smith Hall
What is the Presidents' Climate Commitment?
What does Climate Neutrality mean?
What can universities like Cornell do to reach this goal?
Come participate in an interactive panel discussion hosted by a group of Cornell students, faculty, and staff to explain the implications of the American College & University Presidents' Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), and solicit feedback from the campus community.
Goals of the panel are to:
help the campus community gain a better understanding of the issue of climate neutrality and its implications for University operations and student life;
discuss the steps involved in participating in the ACUPCC;
solicit feedback, including both concerns about the costs and risks associated with this effort and opportunities for making it a reality at Cornell.
