Carbon Footprint has been defined as “the total sets of greenhouse gas emissions caused by an organization, product or a person.”
At AUC what mainly contributes to the greenhouse gas emissions are the heating ventilation, air condition, domestic hot water, lighting and transportation.
In November, AUC displayed numerous sustainability effort across the Campus including the release of AUC Carbon Footprint Report 2.0 for the fiscal year 2012. This report is coedited by the Office of Sustainability and RISE, their goal is to reduce “AUC’s impact on Egypt’s environment and to achieve significant, permanent reductions in the University’s operating costs.” (Director Marc Rauch)
