In 2006, Chattanooga joined 235 other communities when Mayor Ron Littlefield signed the US Conference of Mayors Climate Protection Agreement. The agreement asks that participating cities lower their carbon emissions and lessen their individual impact on global climate change. Today, the number of participating communities has swelled to over 1,000. Each city faces unique challenges and has unique resources to help meet this important goal. Chattanooga’s greatest resource is its citizens!
CAUTION: GREENING IN PROGRESS Creating a sustainable city is a long term journey and will require the commitment of many. We hope this website will serve as a source of community where the citizens of Chattanooga can become involved by voicing their hopes and aspirations. In addition it will help to serve the process by being a source of information. Like Chattanooga Green, this website is new and still in the developmental stages. Please continue to check back with us. We will post progress updates regularly. Additionally we will post links to many of the resources that are already out there.
