IARU Greenhouse Emissions Reduction Targets
IARU Environmental Targets
| University | Targets |
| ANU |
35% below 2006 levels by 2020 100% offset of fleet emissions by 2009 100% offset/reduction of air travel emissions by 2014 |
| Berkeley | Back to 1990 levels by 2014 |
| Cambridge | 10% below 2005 levels by 2010/2011 for building related emissions |
| Copenhagen | 20% below 2006 levels by 2013 |
|
ETH Zurich |
10% reduction in CO2 below 1990 levels. In more detail: - Reduce CO2 emissions from heating by 50% for the “Science City” Campus by 2020. Base year 2004. This campus is responsible for most of the CO2-emissions at the ETH Zurich. - Reduce energy consumption by 10% in some buildings at ETH. |

NUS |
Energy & heat: 1. 15% reduction in our existing buidling emissions by 2015. 2. 20% reduction in laboratory energy consumption benchmarked against standard regularized laboratory consumption by 2015. 3. 25% reduction in future building emissions benchmarked against existing building energy consumption norms by 2015. Air miles: 100% offset in carbon emissions by routing equivalent carbon fees to campus green/energy efficiency projects. Campus fleet emissions: 100% offset in carbon emissions by using alternative fuels/greener vehicles and routing remaining carbon fees to campus green/energy efficiency projects. |
| Oxford | 20% of building related CO2 emissions below 1990 levels by 2010, real progress by 2020 and 60% by 2050 based on 1990 levels. |
| Peking | 15% per floor area below 2005 levels by 2010 (Short term goal). Currently reviewing for long term goal. |
| Tokyo | 15% of CO2 emission from non-experimental sector below 2006 by 2012 |
| Yale | 43% below 2005 levels by 2020 |
The variations in these targets reflect institutional differences, such as the maturity of
their respective campus sustainability programs and infrastructure design, as well as
regional issues, such as climate, energy sources and projected growth.
By necessity, the base year for measuring reductions differs among the Universities due
largely to the availability of accurate data. Hence, the focus of the targets is not the
starting point, but rather the end point - the impact that changes in campus operations will
have in reducing the emissions profile of the Universities by 2020.
