Charleston County is looking to complete its Climate Action Plan and is giving the community a final chance to share feedback.

What is it?

The Charleston County Climate Action Plan is a set of guidelines addressing climate change that aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase energy efficiency, advance equity objectives, and increase affordability for households + businesses. The plan would allow the county to use federal funding for various projects.

The plan includes “The Big Moves,” five key focus areas that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions:

  1. Affordable and resilient buildings
  2. Sustainable and inclusive transportation
  3. Clean energy for all
  4. Innovative industrial and agricultural sectors
  5. Circular economy

Read more about the plan.

How to give feedback:

Charleston County residents and business owners can give feedback during public comment at an upcoming meeting on Tuesday, June 18 at 6:30 p.m. at 4045 Bridge View Dr. in North Charleston.
