EXECUTIVE SUMMARY"Sustainability makes good business sense which is consistent with our goal to use our resources more efficiently."John Plotts, senior vice chancellor – Finance and Administration and co-chair of the CACSCHANCELLOR’S ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON SUSTAINABILITYThis Annual Report highlights the key accomplishments, activities and challenges of UCSF’s Chancellor’s AdvisoryCommittee on Sustainability (CACS) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2009-2010, as well as plans and goals for the FY 2010-2011.This past year was a time of leadership change for UCSF, as a new chancellor came on board, the CACS co-chairsresigned and retired, and a new sustainability manager was hired. Yet despite the transition, the CACS madesignificant and measurable progress toward making UCSF more sustainable and achieving UC Office of the President(UCOP) sustainability goals.Some of the key accomplishments and challenges over the past year are highlighted below. See the full report for adetailed summary from each work group.UCSF HIGHLIGHTS Climate Change: UCOP has set an ambitious goal for all campuses to reduce their carbon emissions to 1990levels by 2020 and to eventually go carbon neutral. The final draft of the UCSF Climate Action Plan (CAP) hasbeen submitted to UCOP, laying out potential opportunities for reducing the campus’ carbon footprint.Because UCSF is a rapidly growing institution, including plans to build the new medical center at Mission Bay,the CAP predicts that meeting the 2020 goal, which will require cutting emissions by almost 50 percent toreach 1990 levels, “will not be a simple task.” It is unlikely that we will reach this goal without the purchase ofoffsets, a significant technological breakthrough in energy production or a reduction in the UCSF growth rate.The Strategic Energy Plan (SEP) was also updated, outlining a range of energy efficiency projects, such asretrofits, boiler replacement, energy efficient lighting upgrades and a PC power management program. Sustainability Baseline Assessment: With the assistance of Davis Langdon Consultants, a SustainabilityBaseline Assessment was completed. The assessment concluded that sustainability initiatives at UCSF are onpar with other UC campuses and in the lead among UC medical centers. It also stressed that it will be achallenge for UCSF to meet the UCOP 2020 climate change goal. The baseline assessment found thatsignificant opportunities for improving the sustainability of UCSF lie in enhanced communications, expandededucation, improved data tracking and continued funding of conservation efforts. We are currently workingwith the consultant to complete a comprehensive Sustainability Action Plan. Energy Conservation: The “Conservation is Contagious” program was launched in 12 UCSF buildings,engaging staff and students to reduce energy use in select buildings. To date, energy use has been cut by 6percent, saving the University 800,000. Green Building: UCSF has made significant progress implementing its commitment to green building andLEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). Two green building projects received LEED-CI(Commercial Interiors) certification: the UCSF Data Center (Silver) and the 654 Minnesota Street renovation(Certification). The Osher Center for Integrative Medicine building, slated for LEED-NC (New Construction)Silver is nearing completion. In addition, Rock Hall at UCSF Mission Bay received UCSF’s first LEED-EB (ExistingBuilding) Silver certification in August 2009. Health Care: UCSF Medical Center received the “Partner for Change” award from Practice Greenhealth foroverall sustainability performance. The medical center saved more than 500,000 by switching from certaindisposable products to those that are reused. In addition, 17 percent of all waste at the medical center wasPage 1UCSF ANNUAL REPORT
recycled and sorted patient food waste diverted 87 percent of that waste to composting and recycling. Andapproximately 47 percent of the produce purchased by the medical center was from local Bay Area farms.Overall, 9.5 percent of the food that the medical center purchased was sustainable. Education and Communication: We held a successful EarthFest/Bike to Work Day event on May 13, 2010,attracting a record attendance of almost 1,600 participants. We launched the new UCSF sustainability Website in October to share sustainability success stories and educate and engage the UCSF community insustainability efforts. Best Workplace for Commuters: UCSF received the “Best Workplace for Commuters” award due to its strongsupport of alternative transportation. More than 25 percent of employees took public transportation tocampus and ridership on the shuttle has more than doubled since 2000, with more than 2.3 million passengerboardings in FY 2009-2010. Increased enrollment in UCSF’s pretax transit program by 24 percent savedemployees 400,000 and reduced employer payroll taxes by 111,000. Participation in City CarShare, a carsharing service, increased by 40 percent. Waste Diversion: Ongoing campus recycling efforts have increased UCSF’s solid waste diversion from landfillfrom 7 percent to 55 percent over the past 12 years.MOVING FORWARDThe specific goals of each work group for the coming year are detailed in the full report. An overarching goal movingforward is for each work group to improve its data gathering system, to better track progress toward theirsustainability goals.We are on track to meet the majority of the UCOP goals. However, if we hope to achieve the UCOP goals for climatechange and zero waste, additional resources will need to be directed toward tackling these key challenges.A key activity during FY 2010-2011 will be the development of a Sustainability Action Plan by Davis Langdon. This workwill be completed in two phases, with the final completion in December 2010.The first phase will focus on a collaborative stakeholder engagement process. Davis Langdon will facilitate a series ofworkshops with major stakeholders at UCSF. The Sustainability Action Plan will address the following desiredoutcomes for UCSF: Clear sustainability goals for every area of UCSF, including the medical center;‘Ownership’ of sustainability at all levels including individual, departmental and schools;Recognized excellence in the field of sustainability for an educational health care institution;A clear ‘business case’ for sustainability, with quantifiable results;A transparent and accessible process for prioritizing strategic sustainability measures; andMeeting or exceeding all external requirements (UCOP, etc.).The Davis Langdon consultants will work with the Sustainability Steering Committee (SSC) to develop a SustainabilityStrategic Plan that will identify specific recommended strategies for reaching 5-, 10 -and 20- year goals for carbonneutrality, zero waste, water conservation, toxics reduction, sustainable food and shifting the University culturetowards sustainability.“What we experienced in a very short period is the formation of the Academic Senate Sustainability Task Force, thecreation of the CACS and a convergence of grassroots interest, senior leadership support and funding.”Steve Barclay, past chair of the CACS and former senior vice chancellorPage 2UCSF ANNUAL REPORT
UCSF SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCEIn December 2007, the Academic Senate Sustainability Task Force was created to identify faculty recommendations onhow to improve sustainability at UCSF. In 2008, Chancellor J. Michael Bishop, recognizing the importance of climatechange and sustainability, created the Chancellor’s Advisory Committee on Sustainability (CACS), then co-chaired byUCSF Senior Vice Chancellor Steve Barclay and Tomi Ryba, medical center chief operating officer. Chancellor Bishopcharged the committee to: Examine UCSF’s effect on the environment from a comprehensive perspective;Evaluate existing UCSF policies, procedures and/or programs that affect the environment;Serve as a coordinating body for groups or individuals concerned with sustainability issues at UCSF; andRecommend changes that will increase sustainability at UCSF.In 2009 and early 2010, CACS leadership changed due to the resignation and retirement of Tomi Ryba and SteveBarclay. David Odato, UCSF Medical Center Chief Administrative and Human Resources Officer, became co-chairrepresenting the medical center, and John Plotts, senior vice chancellor of Finance and Administration, became cochair representing the campus. Gail Lee, UCSF’s new sustainability manager, provides the CACS staff support. SeeTable 1 on the next page for a list of current CACS members.The CACS consists of 11 work groups: BudgetClimate ChangeEducation and CommunicationGreen BuildingHealth CareSustainable Food Clean Energy/WaterReduce, Reuse, RecycleSustainable OperationsProcurementTransportationEach work group is co-chaired by a team, one representative from the medical center and one from the campus (seeTable 2). The work group co-chairs comprise the Sustainability Steering Committee (SSC), which supports the CACS.The work groups include representatives from the faculty, staff, students and the Academic Senate.For FY 2009-2010, the SSC put forth budget requests from each of the work groups to address priority areas totaling 485,000. The CACS approved these recommendations and provided strong justification to the Chancellor for funding.The entire amount was approved and funded by the Chancellor, showing strong support of UCSF’s commitment tosustainability.Page 3UCSF ANNUAL REPORT

OUR KEY ACHIEVEMENTSCLIMATE CHANGEMissionPromote and encourage carbon neutrality in the campus built and leased environment and transportation programs.Recent Accomplishments Became a member of the California Climate Action Registry (CCAR). In FY 2007-2008, saved 1.2 million in energy savings and reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 5,000 tonnes(FY 2009-2010 numbers not yet available). Completed a greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory for calendar year 2009 to identify where our GHG emissionsare originating. We are currently having our 2009 emissions data verified by an independent third party forCCAR reporting. Began a preliminary Climate Action Plan (CAP) that lays out potential opportunities for reducing the campus’carbon footprint. Signed the American College and University President's Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), a broad effort by thenation's higher education institutions to address global warming by tracking, reporting and reducing theirgreenhouse gas emissions.Where We Are Today The vast majority of our GHG emissions come from energy consumption: natural gas use (55%) electricity useon campus (15%) and electricity use in leased spaces (2%). The other major contributor is travel: commutertravel (14%) and airline travel (8%). Emission numbers for FY 2009-2010 are currently being verified and werenot available for inclusion in this report. To meet the UCOP 2014 goal, UCSF will focus on the reduction measures outlined in the CAP, as well asimplement additional recommendations found in the SEP.FY 2010-2011 Goals Page 6Contract with GHG software solution to track, monitor, model and report all emission sources.Complete the development of a Sustainability Action Plan with specific recommendations for achieving theUC Regent’s emission goals for 2014, 2020 and 2030.Begin to implement the projects outlined in the Strategic Energy Plan (SEP).UCSF ANNUAL REPORT

HEALTH CAREMissionPromote and practice a culture of sustainability in patient care settings.Recent Accomplishments Received the “Partner for Change Award” from Practice Greenhealth for overall sustianability performance withinthe medical center. The award, issued on May 12, 2010, recognizes health care facilities that have developedsuccessful pollution prevention programs and recognizes outstanding environmental innovation in health care.UCSF is the first UC campus to achieve this sustainability award. Participated in projects within the Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (COEH) and projects in thecommunity, reflecting our committment to sustainability. Contracted with Stericycle , a medical waste and sharps disposal company, to collect, disinfect and reuseplastic containers for "sharps"-- hypodermic needles and other sharp tools such as scalpels -- as well ascertain containers for medications. This change will divert more than 100,000 pounds of plastic waste fromlandfills and save about 250,000 a year. Switched from disposable patient pillows to vinyl-covered reusable ones that are cleaned and disinfected aftereach patient is discharged from the hospital. In the past, the medical center purchased about 160,000 disposablepillows a year, resulting in 296,000 pounds of waste. The change to reusable pillows is expected to save themedical center 250,000 a year. Generated 65,077.00 from the sale of used (surplus) medical/surgical equipment, saving 36,630 pounds from goingto the landfills. Donated 1,500 worth of equipment to the World Family Ethiopian Orphans and Medical Care.
