AP: Lombardi blocks LSU involvement in environmental pact
BATON ROUGE (AP) — LSU President John Lombardi has blocked plans by the outgoing chancellor of the Baton Rouge campus to join the college “Presidents Climate Commitment” — an agreement to take various steps to cut down on greenhouse gas emissions.
Chancellor Sean O’Keefe, whose last day is Friday, had planned Wednesday to commit the campus to efforts to become a more eco-friendly campus before stepping down. He said he was disappointed Lombardi chose to block the efforts of the LSU Environmental Conservation Organization that put a lot of hard work into the effort.
