Abstract | The burning of fossil fuels is triggering changes to the global climate that will have catastrophic environmental, economic and social consequences. The magnitude of the problem, and the deep challenges associated with confronting it, can seem overwhelming. There are, however, practical actions that academic staff and their associations can engage in to reduce the threat. This report examines: (1) the role of academic staff in combating climate change; (2) the identification of sustainability efforts in place on campus; and (3) practical action, including reducing the carbon footprint, teaching, research, and service, and advocacy.
