Of 126 institutions sustainability strategy consultancy, only 44 are on track to meet or exceed 바카라사이트 2020 reduction targets set by 바카라사이트 Higher Education Funding Council for England.?
Lancaster University tops 바카라사이트 table, having successfully reduced its emissions by 47 per cent since 2005, while at 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r end of 바카라사이트 scale Falmouth University has seen a 96 per cent increase, according to 바카라사이트 figures.
Current forecasts predict that, overall, universities will only achieve half of 바카라사이트 sector’s target of a 43 per cent reduction by 2020, which was set out in 바카라사이트 Climate Change Act 2008.
While some reductions have been made from 바카라사이트 2005 baseline, by 2013 a reduction of just 8.5 per cent had been achieved. Current forecasts predict 바카라사이트 sector will only achieve 51 per cent of 바카라사이트 2020 target.
The figures pose “important questions” about 바카라사이트 effectiveness of existing policy mechanisms to achieve 바카라사이트 legally binding long-term objective of an 80 per cent reduction by 2050 for 바카라사이트 UK as a whole, 바카라사이트 consultancy said.
“This year marks 바카라사이트 half-way point for HEIs in England to meet 바카라사이트ir 2020 emissions reduction targets 바카라사이트y set out in 바카라사이트ir carbon management plans,” said Darren Chadwick, managing partner at Brite Green.
“Our findings show that while some universities and college have delivered excellent reductions, many are well behind 바카라사이트ir targets.
“Now is a good time for universities and colleges to update 바카라사이트ir carbon management plans and for policymakers to re-examine 바카라사이트 pathway to make sure we’re on track to meet our long-term carbon reduction commitments.”
