These commitments align with McGill’s broader sustainability strategy, which includes becoming a fully carbon-neutral university by 2040 and achieving zero-waste campuses by 2035. McGill has been repeatedly recognized as a global sustainability leader – most recently placing 13th out of 1,397 institutions worldwide in the 2024 QS World University Sustainability Rankings.
