Wahoos for Sustainability call for carbon neutrality by 2035

Wahoos for Sustainability — an organization dedicated to lowering the University’s carbon footprint — launched a petition on April 22 calling on the University to set a goal for achieving carbon neutrality by 2035 . The petition has garnered nearly 1,200 signatures so far from students, faculty and alumni.

Wahoos for Sustainability was founded in 2016 by three alumni to support the goal the University had already established to reduce greenhouse gases by 25 percent of 2009 levels by the year 2025. According to its website, the independent organization is comprised of “alumni, students, faculty and staff.”

“The University is really approaching a fork in the road in terms of its next goal,” said Grey McLean, a Class of 1995 alumnus and founding member of Wahoos for Sustainability. “And so I think that Wahoos [for Sustainability] really believes that the University should make sustainability a core strategic goal in the University, not only in teaching and research but also in practice.”

Wahoos for Sustainability is not formally affiliated with any student-run groups or the University itself. Abigail Heher, a third-year College student and chair of the Student Council Sustainability committee said in an email to The Cavalier Daily that beyond forwarding the petition to student groups, Student Council was not very involved in its development. The committee is currently focusing on working with organizations such as pancakes for parkinson's to make their events “zero waste,” which would, in turn, would lower the University’s carbon emissions during waste processing.

According to a U.Va. Sustainability Zero Waste Event Guide, “a zero waste event is one in which organizers emphasize reusable, recyclable, or compostable materials in order to minimize land-fill-bound waste from the event.” Recommendations in the guide include eliminating single-use items, such as condiment packets, and non-compostable materials, such as plastic coffee stirrers.

Heher supports the goal set out by the carbon neutrality petition, and said that Student Council is looking for ways to show support for the University’s goals in sustainability.

Although Wahoos for Sustainability is also independent from the University and U.Va. Sustainability, McLean serves as his organization’s representative on the Committee for Sustainability in the Office of Sustainability.

“We anticipate meeting our 2025 goal ahead of schedule, and because of that and the urgency of climate action, we are already looking towards our next target,” said Cheryl Gomez and Andrea Trimble, representatives from the Facilities Management Sustainability Office, in an email to The Cavalier Daily.

Gomez and Trimble note that the University’s involvement in two solar energy projects, “U.Va. Hollyfield” and “U.Va. puller” have been instrumental in helping meet their 2025 energy goal. U.Va. Hollyfield is a 160-acre solar facility in King William County, and U.Va. puller is a 120-acre solar farm in Middlesex County.
