Cornell continues to honor its dedication to the Kyoto Protocol Commitment of 2001 by striving to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the combined heat and power plant on campus by 30 percent.

Carlos Rymer ’08, president of the Sustainability Hub, explained that “the University will reduce the emissions 30 percent below the levels in 1990.”

Edward Wilson, the head of utilities and energy management on campus, explained that currently Cornell is generating all of the steam needed for the heating on campus, but only 15 percent of the electrical needs.
