Get Involved in Making Longmont More Sustainable in 2020

Picture
Another year has begun, and there are more opportunities than ever to get involved and do our part in making sure that our City is made more sustainable, equitable, and vibrant. If not now, when? The world isn’t getting any cooler (2019 was the second hottest year on record according to NASA and NOAA), and it is ever more important that we continue to light a fire under our local decision makers (and ourselves!) to ACT NOW.
Here are some ideas. Please add to them and make a commitment to get involved in 2020!
  • Get more involved in local environmental efforts. Attend a City Sustainability Coalition meeting. Speak up at City Council on Tuesday nights. If you work in Longmont, ask your business what they are doing to become more sustainable, and/or suggest that they join the Sustainable Business Program.
  • Learn about some of the many environmental ballot initiatives (like this one about fracking setbacks) that will be up for debate in 2020. 
  • Write letters and sign petitions (like this one to end the plastic bag ban preemption) and show up to support the ones you care about.
  • Ride the bus for free. Carpool. Walk.
  • BYO mug, bag, container, bottle, etc. Shop at Simply Bulk and reduce packaging waste.
  • Get more involved with SRL! Become a Board Member. Attend a Zero Waste or Renewable Energy Committee Meeting. Become a monthly donor. Help out at Longmont’s Earth Day on April 25 or by tabling at the Farmers’ Market.
We hope to see you at one of the many great events we are planning for 2020. Thanks for doing your part!
