The new Climate Action Plan will establish science-based strategies and goals for mitigating the effects of climate change, while the Greenhouse Gas Inventory will quantify the emissions produced by the City in a given year and track progress toward established goals.

This work will also assist the City in its pursuit of bronze certification in the New York State Climate Smart Communities Program.

The City’s first Climate Action Plan was completed in 2011. Its first Greenhouse Gas Inventory used 2006 data. The new plan will include updates, improvements and actionable goals for the City to pursue in the coming years.

As the effects of climate change become more noticeable in our everyday lives, it is critical that the needs of all Binghamton residents are being adequately planned for and met. The City is looking for your feedback, comments and recommendations for the Climate Action Plan.
