Adler to talk climate change today
Tuesday, November 28, 2017 by Elizabeth Pagano
Today, Austin Mayor Steve Adler and Georgetown Mayor Dale Ross will sit down with Steve Clemons, editor of The Atlantic, to talk about climate change, and cities’ roles in dealing with that issue. Georgetown is now powered entirely by renewable energy, and Adler has signed the 23rd Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and voted with a majority of City Council to set the city’s renewable energy goal at 65 percent by 2027. The panel will take place at 3 p.m. at 3TEN ACL Live.
