As part of the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), Cornell University has calculated its first greenhouse gas inventory. This news from the inventory indicates that Cornell will be on course to reduce central utilities emissions by almost one-third - far exceeding the university's goal of being 7 percent below 1990 levels of carbon emissions by 2012. The university is expected to meet that goal by 2010, two years ahead of schedule.
