Climate Assembly - Core question and mandate

The University of Copenhagen has a target of a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030 (compared to 2018). It's an ambitious goal and one that requires us to adapt and make changes. At SAMF, we a re committed to achieving this goal in a way that is meaningful to both students and staff. We therefore want to involve staff and students at SOCIAL SCIENCE in how the faculty will contribute to achieving this goal, and have set the Climate Assembly the following task:

We need your help to recommend and prioritise (1) how SAMF should reduce its CO2 emissions
and (2) ensure that SAMF actively contributes to society's green transition.
