“…The university has 13 state campuses and 21 satellite campuses. The efforts focused on five greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction elements, namely energy, mobility, waste, greenery, and water bodies, using a city-based approach within the Low Carbon City Framework (LCCF), including the urban environment, urban infrastructure, and building criteria [50].…”

The urbanization process in Peninsular Malaysia has resulted in an increase in temperature. Large cities such as Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bharu, and George Town are experiencing rapid urbanization processes, resulting in unpredictable changes in temperature and weather, which consequently impact community livelihoods. Many believe that the recent flooding in urban residential areas in Peninsular Malaysia has been worsened by climate change. Hence, this paper explores and discusses recent community perceptions of the climate change issue in Peninsular Malaysia. A group of 350 community members from different states in Peninsular Malaysia gave their views and opinions related to climate change via an online quantitative survey questionnaire. Their perception of the urbanization process and its impact on the increase in temperature was descriptively analyzed using the frequency analysis technique and mean score, while their suggestions in verbatim form on reducing the effects of climate change were analyzed thematically. The respondents perceived the climate change issue as attributable to the factors of urbanization, namely the manufacturing industry, population density, and private motor vehicles. Respondents provided suggestions for reducing the effects of climate change, ranging from government policies to community actions.

Carbon emissions are the main contributor to global warming, and it is well known that emissions must be significantly reduced to avoid the worst effects of climate change. The objective of this study is to investigate the carbon emissions from energy use in Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia campus. The main data collection approach for this study is the analysis of technical reports on energy consumption from 2015 to 2021 collected from the Development and Maintenance Center (PPP) and Sustainable Campus Office (SCO). The data collected was analyzed and compared over seven years of data presentation and analysis. The results show that the highest energy consumption has a significant impact on increasing carbon emissions on campus, with the highest emissions in 2015 at 1955.38 tCO2e and the lowest in 2021 at 965.70 tCO2e. On the other hand, based on the collected data, depending on the building, from 2018 to 2020, the highest carbon emission was demonstrated by the Faculty of Technical and Vocational Education (FPTV) with 2,875 tCO2e. As a result, lower energy consumption will lead to less carbon emissions that could create a better environment with less pollution and significantly lower costs.
