In late 2006, the Town of Blacksburg signed the U.S. Mayor’s Climate Protection Agreement to commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions within the community. In 2007, energy use data was collected as part of a comprehensive community greenhouse gas inventory in support of a newly formed Mayor’s Task Force on Climate Protection & Sustainability. In 2008, workgroups will be focusing on identifying measures to further reduce energy use in Town government operations and within the community.
