Climate Action Public Meetings Happening Next Week

Fairfax County has announced two climate action public meetings taking place the week of February 22, 2021. These public meetings will give residents and other county stakeholders an opportunity to hear from experts and offer feedback on the development of the county’s first-ever Communitywide Energy and Climate Action Plan (CECAP).

The two public meetings will be held virtually using the WebEx platform due to the coronavirus pandemic. The first public meeting will be devoted to energy issues, and the second will focus on transportation, development and waste-related issues. This division of the climate planning discussion draws attention to the two greatest sources of greenhouse gas emissions in Fairfax County: energy use in buildings and transportation.

More information on the February 23, 2021, climate planning public meeting on energy issues can be found here. More information on the February 25, 2021, climate planning public meeting on transportation, development and waste-related issues can be found here.
