City of Ames CAP project leaders will provide background on the community’s first CAP process, starting with a look back at our community’s commitment to sustainability through initiatives including our Resource Recovery Plant, glass recycling program, biodiesel initiative, SunSmart Community Solar farm, and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory.
Project leaders will then discuss selecting and moving forward with consultant Sustainability Solutions Group, establishing a GHG reduction goal for Ames, and next steps in the CAP process.
Information on how to stay up to date on the process and how to get involved will also be provided.
