SIMAP Receives $5000 Grant
The Sustainability Indicator Management and Analysis Platform (SIMAP®) is a carbon and nitrogen-accounting platform that can track, analyze, and improve your campus-wide sustainability and it was developed right here at UNH.
The mission of SIMAP is to continue to help colleges and universities track their footprints so they can meet their sustainability goals as effectively and efficiently as possible. The tool was redesigned in 2017 to provide a simple and adaptable user interface, making data entry and tracking easier. The integration of the nitrogen footprint extends the scope of the tool beyond carbon, allowing it to account for environmental impacts such as biodiversity loss, water quality, and air quality. In addition, this integration incorporates the nitrogen footprint of food purchase.
Thanks to a generous donation from Wendell Hadden, the Vice President for Education at Interface, and the Ray C.
Anderson Foundation’s Executive Director, John Lanier, SIMAP hired Emily Mello as a summer fellow to help evaluate upstream and downstream carbon emissions. Thank you Wendell, John and everyone at Interface!
