President’s CommitmentPresident’s Commitment
Accordingly, we commit our institutions to taking the following steps in pursuit of climate neutrality:
1. Initiate the development of a comprehensive plan to achieve climate neutrality as soon as possible.
2. Initiate two tangible actions to reduce greenhouse gases while the more comprehensive plan is being developed. Establish a policy that all new campus construction will be built
to at least the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED Silver standard or equivalent.
Encourage use of and provide access to public transportation for all faculty, staff, students and visitors at our institution
3. Make the action plan, inventory, and periodic progress reports publicly available.

Current Sustainable Practices
Implementing energy-efficiency projects such as upgrading lighting systems, retrofitting HVAC systems, and improving laboratory ventilation.
Purchase natural gas on the open market to reduce cost RFP for Electrical Service Provider to help CNM seek way to
lower energy use 14 buildings are currently tied to Energy Management System CNM received a grant for the State Energy and Minerals
Department to do lighting upgrades which will allow CNM to purchase renewable energy from PNM Blue Sky program with savings
