Sustainability staff tackles climate plan
Thursday, February 6, 2020 by Tai Moses
The city’s Office of Sustainability is asking community members to submit ideas for reducing the carbon footprint of Austin’s transportation system and land use patterns at a Transportation and Land Use Community Workshop. As part of its update of the Community Climate Plan, the sustainability office wants to know more about the “goals, barriers, hopes and dreams” people have about the climate crisis and their community carbon footprint. Along with all the good discussion, there will be food and drink and supervised activities for the kiddos. Learn more and register on Eventbrite. Thursday, Feb. 13, 5:30-8 p.m., Carver Library Auditorium, 1161 Angelina St.
