LOCAL STORY
Western Communities Take Action Against Climate Change
(Phoenix, AZ)- A new report from the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy-  
Sonoran Institute reveals how local planners are working to reduce  
vehicle miles traveled, energy and water consumption, and encourage  
density under the banners of 'Sustainability' and 'Economic  
Efficiency.' The vast majority of policies cited by participants  
focused on mitigating or reducing climate change impacts through  
energy efficiency, expanded transit, urban forestry, and water  
conservation.
