George Mason University, where I am currently studying economics, “will be taking steps to ultimately eliminate or offset CO2 emissions from all sources associated with university operations including electricity, heating, commuting, and air travel.”
In a student survey where we can raise questions or concerns, I asked: “Will the benefits be higher than the costs? Will it raise fees and tuition? Are there other uses of Mason’s limited resources that would do more good? The University should have answers to those questions before it proceeds.”
All I’m saying is look before you leap.
