    Climate change is one of the most significant issues affecting our environment, and because it lowers individual productivity, it poses a risk to the nation's economy. Therefore, if there is no significant response to climate change, Therefore, this problem inspires the academic staff at (EU) to offer solutions.

Additionally, several renewable energy sources that aid in reducing climate change have been employed for lighting and water heating, which lessens the burden on the power grid that is constructed on traditional energy sources and also lessens pollution from gas combustion It.

It is important to note that (EU) is working to replace an outdated air conditioning split unit with an environmentally friendly air conditioning split.

The Energy Research Lab, which contains several renewable energy sources, was created within EU This lab includes a Smart Solar Building, also known as the "Smart Internet Lab," where experiments can be carried out. Solar energy research, in particular, requires a lot of time due to Iraq's hot summer temperature. Additionally, numerous green gardens were as a result of their significant contribution to minimizing carbon dioxide emission and reducing pollution. Additionally, Al-Esraa University  Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Department organizes awareness campaigns on the impact of plastic waste on the environment. Al-Esraa University is one of the first institutions of higher learning in Iraq to take steps to lessen greenhouse gas emissions and global warming, both of which have an impact on the climate. Al-Esraa University does this by reducing the demand for electricity and other sources of carbon dioxide emissions.

The first of a two-steps  to switch the university's energy sources from fossil fuel to renewable energy.

Al-Esraa University started putting up PV models over the campus building based only on how much electricity the building used

By 2030, a connection between the university's local electrical grid and the National Grid will enable the university to export the surplus electricity generated by the PV models, lowering Iraq's CO2 emissions.
