TABE In-person Luncheon: Path to Net Zero: Ron Saporta, Chief Operating Officer, University of Toronto

Over the course of 2024/25, one of the TABE event themes is dealing with climate change through transitioning towards net zero carbon emissions.  Ron Saporta, University of Toronto Chief Operating Officer, will present the transition of the University of Toronto, both its plan and the results-to-date. Under the plan, the downtown St. George Campus will become the world’s first “climate positive” and “GHG negative” post-secondary campus by 2050.  The University was recognized for this ambitious plan and its implementation-to-date as the most sustainable university in the world in 2023 and 2024.
