Lanark Country is developing a Climate Action Plan (CAP) for the whole of Lanark County and Smiths Falls. It will provide an Action Plan for the next 10 years for both County municipal operations as well as the community as a whole (homes, cottages, businesses, transportation, energy use, agriculture, etc.).
Our local governments control or influence 50% - half - of our Greenhouse Gas emissions through their decisions on buildings, how we transport ourselves, location of workplaces, stores and homes, how we produce food and how we deal with waste. The Climate Action Plan will identify ways to minimize Greenhouse Gas (GHG) generation.
Climate Network Lanark is helping Lanark County understand where it should best focus its efforts. Please take the survey https://survey.alchemer-ca.com/s3/50122349/Lanark-Climate-Action.
After completing the survey, you will have the option to enter your name and email address into a draw for one of 4 prizes.
