Chemistry Undergraduate Teaching Lab hibernates fume hoods, drastically red...

MIT Safe & Sustainable Labs (S2L) Program

Fume hoods like these are placed into hibernation mode when they are no longer in use for the day. Since employing the use of hibernation mode, the unoccupied Undergraduate Teaching Lab air change rate has plummeted from 11 air changes per hour to seven ACH, drastically shrinking unnecessary energy outflow, saving MIT an estimated $21,000 per year.

Reducing emissions by decarbonizing industry

MIT Center for Sustainability Science and Strategy

Cement, iron and steel, and chemicals account for about 20 percent of global CO2 emissions. Emissions from these industries are notoriously difficult to abate because, in addition to emissions associated with energy use, a significant portion of industrial emissions come from the process itself. Pictured here is a steel mill in Pennsylvania.
