Climate Neutral
"Campus
Communities Taking the Moral and Technological Lead in Fighting Global Warming"
On March 24, 2006, students, professors, administrators, attorneys, and climate and sustainability experts came together from across the state and throughout New England to discuss the growing threat of climate change, and the role of the university in finding solutions. In 2006-2007, NAELS will work with students at Pace's Law School, and campus-wide, as well as with the Environmental Consortium of Hudson Valley Colleges and Universities to launch additional campus climate reduction efforts, with a long-term goal of climate neutrality.
