Milwaukee’s Climate & Equity Plan Proposal
March 19, 2023 | 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Erick Shambarger, Director of Environmental Sustainability for the City of Milwaukee.
Erick Shambarger has led a City-County Task Force to develop a Climate and Equity Plan for Milwaukee. The Task Force has developed a series of recommendations to address climate change through reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and, in so doing, address problems of equity through creation of good-paying “green jobs.” Plan recommendations address energy production and consumption, transportation, energy conservation in buildings, job creation, housing, tree planting, land conservation, food waste reduction, and more. The City Plan Commission and Common Council are due to consider adoption of the plan next month.” Environmental Collaboration Office (milwaukee.gov) Host: Bruce Wiggins

For over 50 years, the Sunday Forum lecture series has showcased provocative, sometimes controversial, speakers discussing topical issues of the day: politics, the environment, health issues, the arts, education, and more. The Sunday Forum is held at 10:00 a.m. September through May. Speakers give a 45-minute presentation, followed by questions and brief comments from the audience. The content of Forum lectures does not necessarily express the viewpoint of First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee, but are meant to offer thoughtful topics which our members often pursue further on their own.
