GREEN BUILDING ALLIANCE
Sustainable Climate Fellow
Summary:
In September 2010 my time has been focused on developing funding strategies for the Pittsburgh Climate Initiative. We have finalized the 2008 Pittsburgh Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory Report: A Five-Year Benchmark and it will be published online during the first week of October. I have also drafted all four chapters of the Pittsburgh Climate Action Plan, each of which are under review by the leaders in each sector. The community and business chapters require the most development, and as such we’re working for more aggressive progress in October. I am also organizing outreach events with the Higher Education Climate Consortium’s member schools for October, for which I’m conducting two training sessions during the first week of October to teach volunteers basic skills in active tabling.
