Targets to 2037<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
Reduce CO2 eq.<\/sub> emissions from business travel by air by at least 60% by 2019.<\/summary>\n

\n

Context<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Business travel by air is responsible for 24% of UNIL’s CO2 eq.<\/sub> emissions, making it the largest source, and for 6% of its impact on global biodiversity (in 2019). UNIL has a great deal of flexibility to take action on staff travel and has already taken the first steps by adopting a new directive on professional travel, which notably introduces a restriction on the use of airplanes for destinations that can be reached in around ten hours by train (see Directive 0.8<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Effects expected by 2037<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

17% reduction in CO2 eq.<\/sub> emissions and 4% reduction in the impact on UNIL’s overall biodiversity compared with the trend scenario.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
