Somerville Climate Forward - Community and Economic Development committee

Today, I went to the final (of three) committee meeting for the City of Somerville’s climate action plan process, called Somerville Climate Forward. Our committee was tasked with discussing Community and Economic Development, but we were tasked with a narrower discussion — assess environmental equity of three solutions. We looked at non-car transportation (essentially bikes and buses), creating a culture of climate, and existing building strategy. Focused discussion for 90 minutes. Glad to have participated.
