Introduction
Event Structure
Four short sessions of roughly the same format:
• Introduction and analysis of one of the Four main aspects of a Climate

Introduction
Group Participation
• Some of you are well down the road of completing your CCAPs
• Some of you are responsible for driving the sustainability agenda within the
FHE sector
• Some of you have allocated resource in terms of both finance and agenda
focussed personnel to address climate change, carbon emissions reduction
and sustainability issues
Together you may represent for 10% - 15% of the sector
Sustainability Insight
Climate Change Action Plans
Introduction
Group Participation• Some of you have just begun or about to begin the process of completing a CCAP
• Some of you the climate change, carbon emission reduction and sustainability are areas that have until recently, been the remit of somebody else
• Some of you have yet to allocate or have just begun to allocate resources in terms of finance
• Some of you will not have additional agenda focussed personnel to address climate change, carbon emissions reduction and sustainability issues
Together you may represent 85% - 90% of the sector
Sustainability Insight

Introduction
Group Participation

Duties on Public Bodies Part 4 (1)
Duties on the face of the Act require that a public body must, in exercising its functions, act:
• In the way best calculated to contribute to delivery of the Act’s emissions reduction targets
• In the way best calculated to deliver any statutory adaptation programme
• In a way that it considers most sustainable
Sustainability Insight

Session 1 - Why?
Duties on Public Bodies (2)
• Scottish Ministers also able to place further statutory climate change duties on public bodies in secondary legislation
• Public bodies defined as those within meaning of s.3(1)(a) Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002
• Scottish Ministers must give guidance to relevant public bodies in relation to climate change duties. Before bringing forward such guidance, relevant stakeholders must be consulted
• Public duty provisions must come into force no later than 18 months after the Bill received Royal Assent

Session 1 - Why?
United Nations Copenhagen Climate Change Summit
The UN climate conference in Copenhagen in December this year hopes to have new global climate agreements on four political essentials:
1. How much are the industrialised countries willing to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases?
2. How much are major developing countries such as China and India willing to do to limit the growth of their emissions?
3. How is the help needed by developing countries to engage in reducing their emissions and adapting to the impacts of climate change going to be financed?
4. How is that money going to be managed?

Session 1 - Why?
Universities and Colleges Climate Change Commitment for Scotland (UCCCfS)
• In February 2009 there were 38 signatories of the UCCCfS, constituting
60% of universities and colleges in Scotland
• Each has committed to preparing and publishing a 5 year Climate Change
Action Plan with targets and timescales to achieve significant reduction
in emissions from all business activities
• This will require the allocation of time and resources but should become
part of an institution’s strategic planning process
• FHE representatives liaising with Scottish Government on best practice

SFC Sustainable Development Estate Management Guidance• The revised Sustainable Development Guidance for Estate Management has been produced on behalf of the SFC to provide colleges and universities with a toolkit for incorporating sustainable development into practical, routine facilities management and also for embedding the principles of sustainability in their estate strategies
• The guidance was developed in 2008 on behalf of the SFC and has subsequently been amended and updated this year to work in tandem with other SFC guidance and documentation and to fully integrate with the EAUC Resource Map

EAUC Resource Map
20 minute demonstration during (last 20 minutes of) lunch for those of you how are interested
In support of the UCCCfS, EAUC-Scotland has undertaken a major resource mapping exercise to facilitate partnership between the sectors and the organisations that promote sustainable development and provide the necessary support to develop and deliver Climate Change Action Plans. Comprehensive details of 46 organisations' services and support have been collated and are found in this document.

In addition to these three phases, the information has been broken down into two other groupings:
1. Organisational areas of assistance 2. Sustainability Themes
