Climate Change
• GHGs include CO2 ,CH4, NOx, SOx expressed in terms of metric ton equivalents of CO2

2005 & 2007 are tied the 3rd greatest CO2 increase since monitoring began in 1958

What We'll need to do:
- some capital-intensive initiatives e.g., LEED certified buildings, alternative energy
![Page 6: KSU’s Climate Action Plan Submitted as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) January, 2010 4 March, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56649f0c5503460f94c1f307/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
- & some Behavioral Changes
![Page 7: KSU’s Climate Action Plan Submitted as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) January, 2010 4 March, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56649f0c5503460f94c1f307/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
TRANSPORTATION
Seek ways to reduce vehicle idling:
a campus "No-Idle" Policy;
finding off-campus parking sites;
shuttle bus route
![Page 8: KSU’s Climate Action Plan Submitted as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) January, 2010 4 March, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56649f0c5503460f94c1f307/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Encourage alternatives to single-occupancy vehicle commutes
• Incentives for alternate-fuel vehicles
• Promote Teleworking• Promote the use of
"Wimba" technology for teleconferencing

ENERGY CONSERVATION
• Continue looking at extending campus shut-downs
(establish a Master Calendar to coordinate athletics & arts scheduling)
• Motion sensors for office, parking deck lights
• Thermostat settings: 680, 780
![Page 10: KSU’s Climate Action Plan Submitted as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) January, 2010 4 March, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56649f0c5503460f94c1f307/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Energy audits & retro-commissioning of older buildings (stimulus funds awarded)
• Phantom Power Load: screen savers use energy and are not necessary
• Turn off computers, monitors, coffee makers, etc.

RECYCLING
• Watch for comingling of trash & recyclables
• Promote the use of paper with 30% or 50% recycled fiber
• Introduce a workable recycling system into residence halls
![Page 12: KSU’s Climate Action Plan Submitted as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) January, 2010 4 March, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56649f0c5503460f94c1f307/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
EDUCATION
• Sustainability Across the Curriculum
• "Why Recycle" course for staff & faculty
![Page 13: KSU’s Climate Action Plan Submitted as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) January, 2010 4 March, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56649f0c5503460f94c1f307/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
KSU GREEN POLICIES
• Energy Star Purchasing Policy (2008)
• Proposed No Idle & No Heater Policies
• Propose a policy of using Recyclables only at KSU-sponsored events
![Page 14: KSU’s Climate Action Plan Submitted as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) January, 2010 4 March, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56649f0c5503460f94c1f307/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
