ROCKVILLE, Md., Nov. 22, 2021—The Montgomery County Council will host a virtual Climate Change Town Hall meeting on Thursday, Dec. 2 from 7 to 9 p.m. through Zoom.
Councilmembers have scheduled this time to answer questions and listen to concerns from community members regarding climate change and the environment.
“Four years after declaring a climate emergency, Montgomery County is far behind in reaching our climate goals. It’s time for us to get serious and take bold, aggressive action to address this crisis,” said Council President Tom Hucker, who also serves as chair of the Council’s Transportation and Environment Committee. “This town hall is a great opportunity for residents to share their feedback and vision for climate action and learn more about what steps the County is taking to move toward a more resilient and equitable future.”
