American College & University Presidents' Climate Commitment
The American College & University Presidents' Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) is a “high-visibility effort” to address global warming (global climate disruption) by creating a network of colleges and universities that have committed to neutralize their greenhouse gas emissions and accelerate the research and educational efforts of higher education to equip society to re-stabilize the earth’s climate.〔http://www.presidentsclimatecommitment.org〕
(Second Nature ) is the main supporting organization of the ACUPCC.
==Definition of sustainable development==
The commonly accepted definition of sustainable development is defined as, “development that meets the needs of the present with- out compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” 〔http://www2.aashe.org/heasc/documents/MA08ExecSumm.pdf〕
However, as pointed out by Lander Medlin, APPA’s executive vice president, “sustainability is not just about protecting the environment—it is also about finding ways to meet the basic needs of all current and future generations of humans.” The ACUPCC seeks to encourage higher education institutions to give their students tools to think with a sustainable perspective for the future.〔http://www2.aashe.org/heasc/documents/MA08ExecSumm.pdf〕
