Join the Nation's Local Government Climate Protection Leaders
and Endorse the Climate Action Blueprint
for President Obama and Congress
Climate Communities and ICLEI USA are seeking the endorsement of local elected leaders from across America for their “Empowering Local Government Climate Action: Blueprint for President Obama and 111th Congress." The Blueprint will be released the second week of December 2008 at a series of local media events across the country. Climate Communities members will convene in Washington, DC in February 2009 to meet with leaders of President Obama’s climate team and the incoming Congress to discuss the Blueprint's recommendations.
The following elected officials from my locality endorse the Climate Communities / ICLEI USA “Empowering Local Government Climate Action: Blueprint for President Obama and 111th Congress."
Climate Communities is a national coalition of cities and counties that is educating federal policymakers about the essential role of local governments in addressing climate change and promoting a strong local-federal partnership to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
