We heard straight from the Office of Climate Action, Sustainability and Resiliency in Denver, Colorado, where Deputy Director Elizabeth Babcock discussed how subnational climate action is critical to achieving their goals.
We learnt all about how Denver gained dedicated funding for and constructed a purpose-built office for their climate work, as well as learning about their innovative programs in:
- Renewable Energy,
- Transportation,
- Workforce, and more.
