Committee
The Township of Clearview’s Climate Action Advisory Committee has been created to focus on local initiatives that improve the community’s preparedness for sudden weather events and review and make recommendations to Council on affordable programs that reduce Green House Gas (GHG) emissions and build on the existing GHG reduction efforts by Clearview Township. The Committee will also review local opportunities that create new economies while reducing GHG emissions. The Committee will work cooperatively with Clearview staff on initiatives that are local and affordable and recommend a Clearview Township community GHG reduction program by 2026.
