What Actions are Cities Taking? Energy Efficiency (retrofits, ordinances, procurement) Renewable Energy (solar, wind, grid purchases) Energy Generation (cogeneration, districting) Alternative Fuel Vehicles (biodiesel, CNG) Transit-Oriented Development (zoning, infill) Trip Reduction Programs (carshare, telecommute) Waste Reduction (recycling, composting) Urban Forestry (planting, management)
