How would YOU make DC a greener, healthier, more livable city?

“Hopefully some of you have heard that Mayor Gray recently announced an new initiative to create a comprehensive sustainability strategy for the District called “Sustainable DC.” The planning process is kicking off with a intensive public outreach campaign to hear how District residents envision a more sustainable future in the District.

Check out the website www.sustainable.dc.gov where you can discuss your vision for a greener, healthier, more livable DC, see what others are saying, and vote for your favorite ideas. Since a major goal for “Start in September” is to have dozens of community-led conversations gathering ideas and goals for a more sustainable DC, the website also offers tools like a discussion guide to help facilitate your conversation and a short presentation on the plan. You can also sign up to receive updates throughout the planning process.

Spend a few minutes and share your vision and goals for a more sustainable DC—and tell a few friends while you are at it! Comments or questions can be sent to sustainable.future@dc.gov.

Thanks,
Dan
