I petition universities and institutions of higher education:

•    to include all university-related flying in their environmental impact measurement;
•    to support virtual conferencing and low-carbon forms of transport for faculty, staff, and students;
•    to set ambitious goals for emissions reductions in line with the cuts suggested by climate science; and
•    to use their influence with professional associations and funders to reduce flying and promote alternatives to flying.

, I petition academic professional associations:

•   to report the environmental impact of their meetings;
•   to support virtual conferencing and low-carbon forms of transport for meetings;
•   to set ambitious goals for emissions reductions in line with the cuts suggested by climate science; and
•   to work with members to meet key professional objectives in ways that do not require flying.

, I petition research funders:

•   to include all flying by grantees and staff in their environmental impact measurement;
•   to promote virtual meetings and low-carbon forms of transport for grantees and staff;
