Environmental Initiatives (Carbon Neutrality)

 本学は2050年カーボンニュートラルに向けて,オール金沢大学で「研究・開発」,「社会共創」,「教育」,「キャンパス」の4つの柱で取組を推進しています。
 これまで,取組計画2022(2022年3月),取組計画2023(2023年6月)を策定していますが,この度,カーボンニュートラルに向けた本学の姿勢をより明確にし,ロードマップの見直しを図り,研究・教育等の具体的な成果や目標を充実させた「取組計画2023改訂版」を策定・公表しました。さらに,2025年6月には,2024年度の取組の成果をまとめた「Progress Report vol.2『e:C0Real』 2025」を発行いたしました。

Basic Policy for Achieving Carbon Neutrality

金沢大学では,「Kanazawa E4-CAMPUS for Carbon Neutrality」を掲げ,研究・開発(Research),社会共創(Social Contribution),教育(Education)、キャンパスの施設のカーボンニュートラルの実現(Campus)を柱とし,「未来知」 によるカーボンニュートラル実現で社会の発展を先導するために,オール金沢大学で人材育成および研究開発のトップランナーとして,社会に貢献していきます。

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mission and aspirations of Kanazawa University to achieve carbon neutrality

E4-CAMPUS represents the mission and aspirations of the university, which aims to achieve carbon neutrality and the SDGs through universal education, research, medical care, and social contribution related to the environment, energy, and ecosystems as a center of knowledge in East Asia.

E4-CAMPUS is a combination of the four diverse E's and CAMPUS, with the following aspirations.
E4: Environment, Energy, Ecology, Education and research
C": Cooperation...to conduct education, research, and social contribution toward the achievement of carbon neutrality in collaboration with all members.
A: Achievement...to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050
M: Medical...Contribute to the health and welfare of all people by striving to develop and disseminate highly advanced medical care.
P: Pioneer...Leading the way in achieving carbon neutrality as a center of knowledge in Hokuriku and East Asia.
U: Universality...Through education and research with universality, we will realize a sustainable society where no one is left behind.
S: Social Contribution...To conduct education and research to realize a sustainable society in cooperation with industry, government, academia, and the local community.

 

Greenhouse gas emission reduction targets to achieve carbon neutrality

Mid-term target: 51% reduction from 2013 levels by 2030
Long-term target: Achieve carbon neutrality by 2050

 

Roadmap to carbon neutrality

In addition to promoting research and development that contributes to carbon neutrality with various stakeholders and further enhancing education on global environmental issues, we have established a roadmap to promote efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at campus facilities.
Kanazawa University It is estimated that the social implementation of the research results of the "Greenhouse Gas Reduction Project (GHGR)" will "reduce greenhouse gas emissions by hundreds of millions of tons per year," far exceeding the amount of greenhouse gas emissions from the campus (about 35,000 tons), and is expected to have a ripple effect not only in Japan but also throughout the entire planet.
