Cutting carbon is a priority, but a new briefing by climate experts suggest universities and colleges must decide how to treat ‘unavoidable’ emissions Carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases released when people burn fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas are causing the planet to overheat and leading to changes in the climate such as increasing droughts, flooding and more extreme storms. To stop this, individuals have a part to play to stop contributing to global warming and big organisations must find a way to reverse the damage.  Compensating for student flights, setting up robust and collaborative strategies to permanently bury carbon emissions and creating learning opportunities for staff and students with progressive case studies, are all a new list of recommendations for further and higher educational institutions who are considering ‘offsetting’ in their efforts to reach net-zero emissions.
