Setting the Example
The Pacific Northwest is out in front again on the climate front. Bainbridge Island’s City Council recently passed a Climate Action Plan proposed by its Climate Change Advisory Committee (see article on the passage here). The Plan provides a great roadmap for other places. Having an advisory committee on climate change is a big step in and of itself, much less a committee that generates a plan, and especially a plan with such ambitious yet achievable goals, and a City Council that steps up and passes it.
