Carbon-neutral university

In the light of the European Green Deal and the target of carbon neutrality by 2040 set by the Austrian federal government, KUG is taking on this sociopolitical responsibility and striving to make all university operations carbon-neutral by 2040. A roadmap for 2023–27 that identifies and defines targets and actions for the three key areas of energy use, mobility and material use is currently being devised based on KUG's greenhouse gas footprint, which was determined for the first time in the summer semester of 2022. See here for the footprint in 2019.
