What we did

With this greenhouse gas inventory, the City can prioritize strategies and actions in the CAP that have emerged from plans such as Complete Streets and Bike & Pedestrian Plan. To address the need for updated inventories, Albany contracted ICLEI USA to develop them using its ClearPath software, in which its previous inventories are housed.
