Bloomington Climate Action Dashboard

The Bloomington Climate Action Plan, adopted in April 2021, is a roadmap for reducing emissions and preparing for the impacts of climate change. 
This dashboard serves as a place for the Bloomington community to track progress towards the goals of the plan and to become part of the solution to reduce our community's environmental impact.
