Join Mayor Sylvester Turner and Sustainability Office as they present recommended strategies for the City’s Climate Action Plan.
The strategies will highlight actions across four key areas:
- building optimization,
- decarbonization,
- transportation, and
- materials management.
The City of Houston has set an ambitious goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050, which means that we must reduce or offset any carbon dioxide that we release into the atmosphere.
The Climate Action Plan will outline goals, strategies, and actions that we as a City and community plan to take to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change. The proposed plan is the result of a data- and stakeholder- driven process, organized in partnership with the Houston Advanced Research Center.
Meet count leader Jason Bonilla in the parking lot of Woodland Park. Please note that the park does not have a maintained trail system. As such, there is a lot of poison ivy that is somewhat unavoidable when walking the park and looking for birds. Additionally, there are terrain changes and unstable areas. Participants should wear long pants and closed-toe shoes. They usually meet on the fourth Saturday of the month.
