Public Engagement Implementation Committee

The city has an opportunity through public education and engagement to accelerate behavior changes to mitigate the community’s GHG footprint while also working to address climate injustice. Education is the fabric that ties the sections of this plan together, and it is critical to achieving the city’s goals. Nowhere is this truer than in Bethlehem’s schools— from Bethlehem Area School District (BASD) to the local universities and colleges—where education can spark young imaginations and activism to create broader change—within the city and beyond.

The Public Engagement Implementation Committee meets with the ideas and goals from this section in mind.
