Come see representatives of four Central Virginia city governments talking about what their cities have done and are doing to make themselves more green, with a focus on climate protection, energy efficiency, clean energy, and green jobs.

Charlottesville – Cynthia Adams, Climate Protection Coordinator

Harrisonburg – Kai Degner, Mayor; Thanh Dang, Public Works Planner

Roanoke – Ken Cronin, Director of General Services/Sustainability

Staunton – Bruce Elder, City Councilman; Assistant City Manager Jim Halasz

This should be a great opportunity to hear best practices from city governments around our area and get inspiration by what’s already done and what’s in the pipeline.
