Baseline A date against which the University will measure its progress: 2009/10 for carbon emissions and
2018/19 for biodiversity
Biodiversity The amount of, and variability in, living nature (genes, individuals, species, communities and
ecosystems), including the functions and processes which nature provides
Biodiversity net gain The University will account for the biodiversity impacts from development on its estate, management
of its estate and its operations, and supply chain; avoid and reduce its impacts as much as possible;
and use biodiversity ofsetting to compensate for its residual impacts. Biodiversity will be overall
demonstrably enhanced as a result of the University’s ongoing activities across its whole portfolio by
2035. The University will use 2018/19 as its biodiversity baseline.
Biodiversity ofsetting Involves undertaking conservation and restoration activities to enhance biodiversity for the purpose
of compensation for biodiversity losses and impacts that arise from the University’s development,
management of its estate and its operations, and supply chain.
Carbon emissions The release into the atmosphere of carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide equivalents, a metric measure
used to compare the emissions from various greenhouse gases on the basis of their global-warming
potential (GWP), by converting amounts of other gases to the equivalent amount of carbon dioxide with
the same global warming potential
Carbon Management Fund The existing fund that manages carbon reduction projects across the University
Carbon ofsetting A process whereby carbon or carbon equivalent gases are removed from or prevented from entering the
atmosphere, and stored securely, for the purpose of compensating for University emissions of carbon or
carbon-equivalent gases
Environmental Sustainability A group of academics who have worked with the Environmental Sustainability team to draft this
Strategy Working Group Environmental Sustainability Strategy
Net zero carbon The University will account for carbon emissions associated with its Scope 1, 2 and 3 activities, reduce
them as much as possible and then balance residual emissions through carbon ofsetting to reach
net zero carbon by 2035. The University will use its peak energy consumption of 2009/10 as its carbon
baseline. Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions, primarily from gas used for heating buildings. Scope
2 emissions are indirect emissions from electricity generation for use in University buildings. Scope 3
emissions are all other indirect emissions from activities of the organisation, such as travel,
procurement, waste, water and investments.
Oxford Sustainability Fund A new fund to be established to fnance the income and expenditure related to implementing the
Environmental Sustainability Strategy
Scope 1 emissions Direct emissions, primarily from gas used for heating University buildings
Scope 2 emissions Indirect emissions from electricity generation for use in University buildings
