EXCITING NEWS: CLIMATE ACTION PLANNING BEGINS....
Sustainable Milton's climate action working group has merged with the town's newly formed Climate Action Planning Committee (CAPC), which had its first monthly meeting in June. The committee's August meeting on 8/17 at 6pm will focus on a high-level work plan for producing the town's Climate Action Plan over the coming months. Agendas and meeting minutes are available on the town website, and meeting recordings are available on Milton Access TV's youtube channel. We encourage Sustainable Milton members to engage at our public comment sessions to voice your support and share suggestions about how you think Milton should be responding to the challenge of climate change.
MILTON GROWS:
A year-long initiative of the Milton Public Library, focused on gardening and sustainability, in collaboration with partners Sustainable Milton and Friends of the Milton Public Library.
