5th P (Persuade) Handbook - pg 38 and 39
Pledge at the head-of-organization level to reach (net) zero GHGs as soon as possible, and by mid-century at the latest, in line with global efforts to limit warming to 1.5C. Set an interim target to achieve in the next decade, which reflects maximum effort toward or beyond a fair share of the 50% global reduction in CO2 by 2030 identified in the IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5C. You have one year after you sign to set your targets.
Within 12 months of joining, explain what actions will be taken toward achieving both interim and longer-term pledges, especially in the short- to medium-term. It is expected that universities and colleges include scope 1, 2 AND 3 emissions in their net zero targets and planning. You have one year after you sign to develop your plan.
Take immediate action toward achieving (net) zero, consistent with delivering interim targets specified. You have one year after you sign to develop your actions.
Commit to report publicly both progress against interim and long-term targets, as well as the actions being taken, at least annually. You have one year after you sign to develop your annual report.
Share any commitment statement your institution has in aligning advocacy/policy and/or your engagement with others on net zero goals. See the 5th P Handbook (page 38 and 39) for guidance.
