Responsible Consumption and Production
We’re finding ways to make our consumption and production more sustainable, in line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals
The University of Dundee is committed to reducing all carbon emissions to a net zero position by 2045. To do this we are proactively developing our Carbon Management Plan which will help to guide us as we address the issues we find under Scopes 1, 2 and 3 that we need to address.
