Vermont Climate Action Communities – February 15th informational workshop: 

Town energy committees are invited to attend an informational workshop on Vermont Climate Action Communities (VCAC). The workshop is being held as part of the Vermont League of Cities and Towns’ Local Government Day on February 15^th.  VCAC is designed to engage Vermont municipalities to make and fulfill commitments under the Vermont Climate Pledge Coalition – a pledge to reduce greenhouse gas emissions levels from 2005 by 26-28% by 2025.  Under the program, municipalities are encouraged to achieve deep energy efficiency savings, reduce local emissions, improve resilience in the face of climate change, and provide locally supported renewable energy generation for municipalities and the communities they serve.  The workshop will include an overview on how municipalities can participate, along with presentations from municipalities who are implementing creative solutions. The workshop will be held on Thursday, February 15^th from 1:30-3:00 pm at the Capitol Plaza Hotel in Montpelier.  Click here to register for the workshop.   Questions: feel free to contact Lisa Goodell, VLCT at (802) 229-9111 or [email protected].
