There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

CRC_FirstPlaceThis summer, the Challenge was restructured around Covid-19, with participants developing projects on behaviors and operations that have changed at their organizations during the pandemic. They quantified the carbon reductions and cost savings of those changes and provided recommendations for how their organizations can support effective low-carbon work behaviors when the pandemic eases. Beyond that, the main principles of the Challenge remained the same: Participants immersed themselves in learning more about climate, identified behaviors that have changed at their workplaces, learned how to quantify carbon dioxide and cost savings, and pitched carbon reduction proposals to management in an effort to enlist their support.
