This week, we're covering two presentations happening in this week's Environmental Quality and Public Works committee meeting on Tuesday, January 19th. These presentations involve ways that the City reduces its carbon footprint, although that isn't the presentations' explicit framing.

Why should you care?
With the pace of climate change accelerating and green infrastructure costs dropping, cities across the country are finding it makes good financial and societal sense to focus on reducing their carbon footprint.

The other strategy is more external (resident-facing) and is at risk of becoming financially unviable due to some residents' misuse of the program.
