In addition to implementing the City’s ambitious Climate Action Plan, we are investing in solar installations, energy-efficient buildings, and dedicate more than $1.6 million each year toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions throughout the community. Bloomington is also developing a Climate Resilience Plan, a Beat the Heat program, and is making substantial improvements to our stormwater management system. We understand the impacts of climate change and are doing all we can to protect our community and the vulnerable populations who live here." - Kerry Thomson, Bloomington's 33rd Mayor
