On March 15, 2007, President Roderick McDavis signed the Presidents Climate Commitment, pledging Ohio University to climate neutrality.
Students, staff, faculty and community members are engaged in creating a sustainability plan and a climate action plan for the University. For more information, visit the Sustainability Council.
The Presidents Climate Commitment is the first effort by any major sector of society to set climate neutrality – not just a reduction - as its target. This undertaking by America's colleges and universities is inspired by efforts such as the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement, the U.S. Climate Action Partnership and other collective efforts by states and businesses.
