The event provided information about Columbia’s strategic sustainability planning process that engaged faculty, students, and administrators from across four campuses. The result of this process, Plan 2030, set bold science-based targets with goals in six impactful operational areas.
Attendees also got a behind-the-scenes look at the process the University used to study pathways toward electrifying Columbia’s central plant. This effort will transform Columbia's campus and significantly reduce the University's Scope 1 emissions.
