This is a press release from the City of Arcata:
Arcata, CA– The City of Arcata Energy Committee is excited to be hosting a Climate Action Plan Workshop on Monday, May 20.
Local governments in Humboldt County are working in partnership to create a regional Climate Action Plan. As part of this effort, the City of Arcata is developing solutions to address climate change.
The workshop will focus on current greenhouse gas emissions and recommended actions our community can take to reduce them. Potential actions including sustainable land use, low carbon transportation, building energy efficiency, zero waste, carbon sequestration and other climate protective options will be discussed.
Following the presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to provide feedback and offer additional ideas on how the City can respond to climate change. With community input from this workshop, the City of Arcata hopes to develop creative climate change policies that best fit the unique nature of our City.

Why not just quit buying all your crap from China, they could stop pucking out green house gasses, and you wouldn’t have to waist all your time on your silly little no consequences meetings
Because that would be “inconvenient.”
Remember, “An Inconvenient Truth?” The inconvenient truth was that it’s not government, or Big Business that has created any of our problems.
It’s ourselves, and nothing will change until we do.
But that’s “inconvenient.”
Inconvenient truth still hasn’t met Inconvenient Facts? Well here, I can fix that.

How about starting with our milk. We produce a lot of milk in humboldt, then send it to Yuba city, Petaluma, and sonoma. They process it, and send it back here, as well as we getting lots of our dairy from Umpqua Oregon. So totally green, at 5 mpg of diesel fuel. Whether you Arcata people like, i am not going to change a thing in how I live. But that’s the challenge, bring our milk home, let’s see if you can go up against the trucker union and democrats who supported it.
what did they pave that bike trail with?
We should be building like the ancients with stone and biodegradeable materials.
This mess weve created will take millions of years to be cycled through by nature.
Why not just call it SmartLiving, and leave the ludicrousness out of it?
Pretty much all of the ideas the AGW fanatics have are pretty good ideas, as far as sustainable land use, reducing waste, etc, but when you start throwing crazy ways to reduce a beneficial gas from our atmosphere, when we as humans contribute such an inconsequential amount to begin with (unless you count by exhaling, in which case it’s probably quite a bit), you lose me entirely.
By all means, let’s take care of Mother Earth. Let’s not tie stupidity to the effort, though.
