DuPont announced that Young Bae, Ph.D., has been elected to the Semiconductor Climate Consortium (SCC) Governing Council.
The SCC is a newly formed group that emerged from the SEMI Sustainability Initiative, and is the first global, ecosystem-wide effort to advance the semiconductor industry’s response to the challenge of climate change. DuPont joined the SCC as a founding member in November 2022.
The Consortium recently completed an election to determine its inaugural Governing Council, and DuPont’s Bae was elected alongside six other industry leaders, effective immediately. Council members will guide the SCC in achieving its mission to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across the global semiconductor value chain, including setting priorities based on a member survey and forming working groups and their objectives.
