Austin is striving to become a model city for sustainability

It may be located in the heart of Texas, a state known as a major petroleum producer, but Austin is striving to become a model city for sustainability. And it’s already showing results. Brut nature met with its mayor, Steve Adler, as part of the C40 Cities.

    I've sent this information directly to my City's email address with a note - who ever reads this should consider doing the same - Canada only has 3 cities recognized as a C40 member - we MUST do better!!

    If in the heart of Texas they can look at mitigating their climate footprint, strive towards 0 emissions for all city operations and view alternative methods as a challenge, then surely all other cities can strive towards this goal as well! Bravo Mayor Steve Adler and community!
