Climate Action Plan - Call to Action Meeting

Published: July 11, 2018, 10 a.m.

Discover how you can get involved in the rollout of Iowa City's Climate Action Plan during an upcoming community meeting.

Iowa City's Climate Action Plan identifies actions across several categories that the community can take to reduce its carbon footprint. Items include everyday habits, like transportation, diet and consumption, to larger community development opportunities in our buildings and neighborhoods, as well as initiatives to improve social equity.

The Climate Action Steering Committee, representing a variety of community groups and organizations, has been working to develop Iowa City's first ever Climate Action and Adaptation Plan, which will include ways to achieve community-wide greenhouse gas reduction targets, in addition to creating a more livable, equitable and resilient Iowa City. The plan is expected to go before the City Council this summer.
