The Presidents Climate Commitment calls for the development of an institutional action plan that addresses the following concerns:
i. A target date for achieving climate neutrality as soon as possible.
ii. Interim targets for goals and actions that will lead to climate neutrality.
iii. Actions to make climate neutrality and sustainability a part of the curriculum and other educational experience for all students.
iv. Actions to expand research or other efforts necessary to achieve climate neutrality.
v. Mechanisms for tracking progress on goals and actions.
Progress in these areas is to be documented by the publication of an annual sustainability report, which Wofford has elected to identify with the Gold, Black & Green campaign.
On Earth Day, 2009, Wofford’s PCC Task Force released its first such annual report (Annual Green Report). This is an interim executive summary that will lead into a much more comprehensive document by the end of 2009.
