The Maricopa Association of Governments is developing a climate action plan for Maricopa and Pinal counties.The idea is to develop measures to reduce pollution and improve air quality in those counties.MAG Environmental Director Timothy Franquist said they’re hosting several open house events this month at different locations to collect public input.
