The University established a designated Committee called “Campus Carbon Neutrality Committee” in 22/23 as one of the Committees of the President to support the effective rolling out of our campus-wide Carbon Neutrality Roadmap. The Campus Carbon Neutrality Committee comprises representatives from both academic and non-academic departments with diverse professional backgrounds and is being chaired by Vice President (Research and Innovation) [VP(RI)] and co-chaired by Vice President (Campus Development and Facilities) [VP(CDF)]. The key functions and objectives of the Committee include:
- To oversee the implementation of the campus-wide Carbon Neutrality Roadmap
- To recommend carbon reduction initiatives to the University
- To implement action plans with milestones
- To monitor, evaluate and review performance
- To report to the University on the decarbonisation progress against targets
The diversity of the composition of the Committee allows a whole-institutional approach to enable the University to achieve its short-term, medium-term and long-term decarbonisation goals.
