THIS IS NOT A VIRTUAL EVENT!

Speaker: Mike Filler, Sustainable Systems Commercialization Leader, Trane Technologies™

Decarbonization is the reduction of carbon in the atmosphere, either by reducing emissions through energy efficiency and renewable energy generation, or by removing carbon that’s already in the atmosphere. NIU has recently partnered with Trane to develop and implement a comprehensive energy-saving and carbon-emissions-reduction program on the DeKalb campus. Join us at the next NIU STEAM Café to learn about the local impact of this partnership, as well as Trane’s global decarbonization efforts through innovative technology, education and client engagement.

Northern Illinois University STEM Cafés are part of NIU STEAM and are designed to increase public awareness of the critical role that STEM fields play in our everyday lives. They are offered in partnership with the NIU Alumni Association and made possible with support from additional sponsors and individual supporters.
