Towards Powering Gemini South with Zero CO2 Emission

In view of the urgency of countering the increasing effects of climate change, NOIRLab has decided to lead by example with an ambitious environmental sustainability program. Our target is a 30% reduction in the organization’s carbon footprint from travel and electricity usage by late 2027, based on approved 5-year funding. Additional funding may allow us to reach a 50% reduction.
