MVC begins brainstorming for Climate Week
An electric vehicle parade is planned as part of the Island s Climate Week activities.
The education committee of the Martha’s Vineyard Commission’s Climate Action Task Force recently announced it will be organizing Climate Week, a weeklong community event in November, to celebrate the Island’s commitment to climate action and resilience. At two brainstorming sessions last Wednesday, MVC climate change planner Liz Durkee spoke with community members and leaders to begin planning the event.
“We really want to encourage people to learn about the issues that we’re facing, and understand that it’s a community-wide challenge,” said Durkee. “We all have to do our part if we want to have a sustainable Island to live on.”
