Nature Knows No Borders
"Nature knows no borders" is the slogan for the most important UN wildlife conference this year. The 14th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Migratory Species of Wild Animals #CMSCoP14 will be hosted by the Government of Uzbekistan in the historic city of Samarkand from 12th to 17th February 2024 https://www.cms.int/cop14.

“Unless we Measure, We cannot Manage”, Smart Campus Cloud Network has developed a Net-Zero Tracker for Universities/HEIs to monitor the real-time CO2 emissions of the campus and university’s progress towards Net-Zero. The tracker also sends alerts, and measures to keep universities/HEIs updated on their CO2 footprint.
Post regional workshops in Western, Southern and Northern regions, universities have started making their roadmaps, setting targets to achieve net zero. Experts from Smart Campus Cloud Network and core group teams from universities are ready to take committed actions on the campus. MIT ADT, SPJIMR, BIMTECH, and UAI have started the action.
Smart Campus Cloud Network launched a Net-Zero Chronicle on 26th January 2024. Erik Solheim, Former USG, United Nations & Prajakta Koli, UNDP Youth Climate Champion & Actor inaugurated the chronicle of year-long skill-building net-zero activities for the students to implement on their campus. Coming soon to you!
“Accelerating by sharing knowledge.” Smart Campus Cloud Network has been collecting positive climate stories for the last 3 years and brings them to you. The stories are practical inspiring actions taken by university students in their campus for Environment, Biodiversity, climate change & Net-Zero. You Can Do It Too!
Congratulations!!!
