Connexus Travel Portal Open
Hi all,
You should have recently received a D-List email about the Connexus Travel Portal. I encourage you to use, or ask the travel person in your department to use, Connexus for all your travel purchases. We are currently trying to get a handle on emissions from campus-related travel, but it is difficult under the current decentralized system. Connexus will allow us to collect all the information needed to calculate these Scope 3 emissions for the campus.
So in addition to saving your department money in travel expenses, Connexus will help us get a better idea of the impact our travel is having on the enviroment!
