In early 2022, Northern Ireland set a target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050 in the Climate Change Bill. As a University, we want to help lead the way and demonstrate what is possible.

This is not a simple journey, but it is necessary and urgent.

We're preparing to develop a strategy to enable us to achieve these ambitions – to create a pathway and action plan to take us to net zero, and a plan for adapting to the impacts of climate change. To make sure this strategy is ambitious, credible and something everyone can get behind, the University has today launched a staff and student survey and engagement campaign to ask our staff and students for their views, priorities, concerns and ideas for action.

Queen’s University Net Zero staff event is a chance to hear about the new strategy and talk about priorities for climate action at Queen’s. The event will also allow you to ask questions and, most importantly, share your views on what we collectively need to do as a University to reduce our carbon emissions.
