Exploring the concept of climate neutrality and the development of roadmaps to achieve it at a university, focusing on the efforts of JKU and its Energy Institute towards CO2 reduction and reaching climate neutrality by 2030. The roadmap involves stakeholder engagement, defining system boundaries, using tools like ClimCalc to measure GHG emissions, and detailed planning for a sustainable future.
