The U.S. Conference of Mayors’ Climate Protection Center released a new 2007 Best Practices Guide on Climate Protection Strategies, featuring U.S. cities’ efforts to conserve energy and reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that threaten our planet. The report was released during the Conference’s Mayors Climate Protection Summit, held on November 1-2 in Seattle. The report is based on information submitted to the Mayors Climate Protection Center by mayors who applied for the First Annual Mayors’ Climate Protection Awards, announced in June during the Conference’s 2007 Annual meeting in Los Angeles, and by mayors planning to participate in the Seattle Summit.
