Somerville Climate Forward working session

Today, I participated in the second meeting of the Somerville Climate Forward working group on Community & Economic Development. Productive meeting with good ideas shared and some complementary thinking from a group that is ideologically diverse. One commonality in our thinking is the need to account for equity. Climate solutions, particularly around buildings, power and transport, are often expensive; all of the Somerville Climate Forward solutions ought to have an equity and affordability lens to them. It was good to get that out on the table.
