AMATS Climate Action Plan
AMATS Climate Action Plan
AMATS, together with several partners, is creating a Climate Action Plan focused on the effects of transportation in the AMATS area on the climate. This plan will build on the city's 2019 Climate Action Plan and will measure past and current greenhouse gas emissions from the local transportation system. The goal is to identify actions to reduce emissions, address climate impacts, and ensure fairness in implementation. The plan will also include clear performance goals and a strategy for putting it into action.
