Project Description

The Hyattsville Climate Action Plan will set sustainability and climate action goals for the City to meet, organize and prioritize action steps to achieve the goals, and galvanize and unify key stakeholders in shared sustainability practices. The plan will help the City to advance environmental justice and transition to a state of readiness for and adaptation to climate change and identify where the City can contribute toward County CAP goals achievement. The project includes an intensive, door-to-door climate change and sustainability survey designed and implemented by the University of Maryland School of Public Policy’s Saul I. Stern Civic Engagement Research Lab students; two Greenhouse Gas Emissions Community Inventories compiled by the Maryland-Washington Council of Governments, and consultants’ participation in a Hyattsville community event to further engage residents. The final plan will include an executive summary, prioritized risks and potential actions, and a road map for using the results of the findings.
