Achieving Broader Community Goals Through Climate Action Planning

PAC Pavilion

Co-benefits are key components of developing and implementing climate action plans. Co-benefits broaden the base of support for climate planning and they help achieve the broader vision of great communities. This session examines the power and potential of co-benefits and the important role of partnering with community organizations and stakeholders. Panelists will address issues such as transportation enhancement, economic development, and social capital building. Moreover, they will provide examples and insights on how to integrate cobenefits into climate action and how to best work with community partners.
