? Honorable Mayor Taylor and City Council Members, Thank you for your leadership on climate action. I’m writing in support of the recommendation from the Environmental Quality Commission to adopt a new Climate Action Plan and goal for Zero Carbon emissions by 2030. I support a proposed plan That includes four core strategies to dramatically reduce carbon pollution: 1. Phase out Fossil Gas use in homes & buildings (through clean, zero emission heaters, water heaters and appliances as they are replaced), 2. Support and advance a transition to electric vehicles (EVs) with reduced gasoline sales, expanded EV charging, and City Fleet leadership, 3. Reduce traffic through measures making the City easier to navigate without a car, and increased housing downtown; and 4. Eliminate the use of fossil fuels from municipal operations. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration to implement measures that will set an example and move us toward a healthier planet. Julia Zanutta Received on Sun Jul 12 2020 - 14:25:25 PDT
