To realize the global net-zero carbon pathway goals, President Fuh-Jyh Jan of National Chung Hsing University (NCHU) is committed to promoting the "Sustainable Platform: An Industry-Academia Collaboration" policy blueprint, pledging to achieve campus carbon neutrality by 2040. NCHU held the unveiling ceremony of the Innovative Center on Sustainable Negative-Carbon Resources (iSNR) on September 26, and launched the "Voluntary Carbon Rights" campus green living movement. Dignitaries at the ceremony include Vice Chairman of the National Science Council Min-Tsung Lin, Deputy Director of the Taiwan Power Company's Comprehensive Research Institute Chih-Sheng Chang, Vice President of the Consumers' Foundation Consumer Magazine De-Ren Lee, and Vice President and Director of the Alumni Center of NCHU Yin-Tzer Shih.

iSNR Director Kuan-Jiuh Lin stated that iSNR is the first research center in the fields of science and engineering at NCHU to receive subsidies from the Ministry of Education. It will establish the world's first "Proof test of carbon-neutral sandbox" at NCHU to advance forward-looking research on net-zero technologies, including negative-carbon resources, energy breakthrough and manufacturing, green and sustainable resources, sustainable cloud computing platform. Additionally, the carbon neutrality science baseline is crucial for advancing Taiwan's net-zero pathway. Moving from net-zero commitments to actual implementation requires not only the integration of many technological elements and policy coordination but also bridging with internationally visionary enterprises. Through the voluntary carbon rights green living movement, combined with the global patented wisdom traffic carbon rights calculation, the ultimate goal is to implement a commercial model that reduces annual carbon dioxide emissions by 100,000 tons.
