  • Edinburgh is Scotland's first Fair Trade University
  • Edinburgh University has goals to 1) Cut CO2 emissions by 40% by 2010 - 1990 base year, 2) Improve energy efficiency by 20% by 2010 - 1990 base year, 3) Reduce water consumption by 20% by 2010 - 2000 base year
  • Carbon Dioxide was first isolated in a perfectly pure state at Edinburgh University by Joseph Black. An original glass phial of carbon dioxide – one of only three remaining produced by Joseph Black, is in the University Principal's collection in Old College. In 1756 Black presented the first quantitative analysis of carbon dioxide "Fixed air" in his paper to the Philosophical Society of Edinburgh.
