Burlingame's Green Ribbon Task Force is inviting local citizens to help draft the city's plan for reducing gas emissions and promoting sustainability at a Town Hall Meeting on Saturday, March 28, from 10 a.m. to noon at the Burlingame Recreation Center, 850 Burlingame Ave. Coffee and muffins will be served.
The Task Force members will explain programs they are developing for the city's Climate Action Plan, which aims to reduce emissions by at least 15 percent by 2020, as required by California law. They will solicit ideas on green building, increasing energy efficiency, solar programs, water conservation, and increasing opportunities for bicycling, walking and transit.
