Description
As the World’s largest particle physics research laboratory, CERN strives to deliver world-class scientific results and knowledge, while embedding environmental responsibility and sustainability in its activities. This contribution will present CERN’s approach for environmentally responsible research. It will outline the present footprint of the Organization and the current projects, with a particular focus on energy related matters, aimed at minimising the laboratory’s impact on the environment across its accelerators, experiments as well as its site and campus facilities. How CERN contributes to the development of technologies that may help to mitigating the impact of society on the environment will also be discussed.
