Iraq enjoys abundant of oil reserves, and despite that, the country is not immune to global energy challenges, such as high levels of pollution, depletion of oil stocks and the increased demand for energy resources. These threats require great innovation, and the country has already begun to take measures to become up to this. At the University of Anbar, we have developed a vision to gain more reliance on renewable energy and diversify its sources. This measure helped to escalate its sequence in the Green Metrics classification significantly within only two years of entering the university to fulfill the requirements of this classification, as it became second in Iraq. All of these measures will contribute significantly to diversifying energy sources and supporting the state in achieving its goal of reducing the effects of the carbon footprint.
