350 Salem OR was instrumental in pushing Salem to adopt a Climate Action Plan. That plan is now moving forward, with a goal of reducing Salem’s greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2035, and becoming carbon neutral by 2050.
350 Salem has submitted comments throughout the process. We are urging the city to align current development patterns with Salem’s climate goals. Development is ongoing and results in infrastructure that lasts for decades, so these actions need to begin as soon as possible.
Check out the city website for an overview and updates.
As we have for the past nine years, 350 Salem plans to remain fully engaged with work on implementation of the final plan. Stay turned!
