FCSG Goals Minimize

One:

Work with the Fort Collins City Council and key stakeholders to ensure that appropriate measures are taken and sufficient resources are deployed going forward to meet the community-wide greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals established by Council Resolution 2008-051.  Those goals are to reduce emissions by 20% by 2020 and 80% by 2050 with respect to a 2005 baseline.  The resolution includes a "milestone" of reducing emissions by 3.3% by 2012 with respect to the same baseline.

 Two:

Mobilize on-going community support for dedicating the resources needed to meet community-wide greenhouse gas emissions goals by communicating both the environmental and economic benefits of doing so. 

Three:

Work with Fort Collins City Council and community stakeholders to develop a formal fifty year vision for becoming a sustainable community.  We believe that two key components of this vision will be to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and move towards climate neutrality.

 Four: 

Work with Fort Collins City Staff and community stakeholders to begin implementing the city's vision of becoming a sustainable community.
