Increased awareness of climate change has prompted many large organizations to investigate their carbon footprint. The goal of this project was to establish a campus-wide carbon emissions baseline for Ciudad del Saber in Panama City, Panama. Through research, data collection, and collaboration with the staff of Ciudad del Saber, the team was able to gather information to establish a carbon emissions baseline. Using this information, the project team then provided several recommendations to reduce carbon emissions in the future.
