Congratulations to Mobility Network faculty affiliate Professor John Robinson on the extension of his term to 2025 as Presidential Advisor on the Environment, Climate Change, and Sustainability!

Robinson also co-chairs the University of Toronto Committee on the Environment, Climate Change, and Sustainability, founded in 2017.

Creating the role of a special adviser on environment, climate change and sustainability is one of many initiatives that President Gertler set into motion following his 2016 report “Beyond Divestment: Taking Decisive Action on Climate Change.” Others include the creation of the Committee on the Environment, Climate Change, and Sustainability (CECCS) and setting a mandate for the University of Toronto Asset Management Corp., which manages billions in assets on behalf of the university, to incorporate sustainability goals into its investment practices.

With new appointments, U of T deepens commitment to sustainability goals, U of T News, February 2, 2021
