The Climate Action Plan Task Force is pleased to present an overview of the five-point Climate Action Plan and recommendations based on assessing science and long-term fiscal responsibility. Hear about how BU’s Task Force aims to elevate the University’s position as a leader in addressing the challenges of climate change in its educational programs, research, operations, finance, and community engagement.
