Action Plans & Inventories
There is no “one size fits all” plan of action for local governments
tackling global warming. Your community’s Climate Action Plan is a
customized roadmap to success. But most of the work happening in big
cities and small towns alike is scalable and replicable.
We
are in the process of collecting some of the greenhouse gas emissions
inventories and action plans from cities, towns and counties across the
country. Keep in mind that every jurisdiction is different, but you may
find these examples helpful when writing your own plan.
