Text:
RESOLUTION 97-97 OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS TO JOINTHE CITIES FOR CLIMATE PROTECTION CAMPAIGN
WHEREAS, based on scientific evidence that carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases (ghg) released into the atmosphere will have a profound effect on the Earth's climate, the United States joined with 160 countries and signed the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change which calls on industrialized nations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by the year 2000; and
WHEREAS, energy consumption, specifically the burning of fossil fuels, e.g., coal, oil and gas, accounts for more than 85% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions; and
WHEREAS local governments greatly influence their community's energy usage by exercising key powers over land use, transportation, building construction, waste management, and, in many cases, energy supply and management; and
WHEREAS, local government actions taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy efficiency provide multiple local benefits by decreasing air pollution, creating jobs, reducing energy expenditures, and saving money for the City government, its businesses and its citizens; and
WHEREAS, the Fort Collins Air Quality Policy Plan, approved by Council in 1993, contains the goal of "continually improving air quality as the City grows"; and
WHEREAS, the 1996 Air Quality Action Plan specifically calls for participation in the Cities for Climate Protection campaign, as an important intergovernmental partnership that will strengthen Fort Collins' ability to meet the goal of continually improving air quality; and
WHEREAS, the Council intends for the City to take a leadership role in increasing energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from municipal operations; and
WHEREAS, the Council further seeks to join with cities from all over the world in the Campaign
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS, that the City Manager be authorized and directed to proceed on behalf of the City to participate in the Cities for Climate Protection Campaign; to develop a local action plan which describes the steps our community will take to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including a greenhouse gas audit, or baseline and future emission analysis; to determine the source and quantity of greenhouse gas emissions within the City; to establish a CO2 or greenhouse gas emission reduction target; and to develop a strategy for meeting the greenhouse gas reduction target.

Fort Worth, TX Wetlands Water Reuse Project

Type: Program
Status: Initiated in 1992
Source File: http://www.trwd.org/prod/AboutUs_Wetlands.asp
Description:
Tarrant Regional Water District
TRWD's Wetlands Water Reuse Project was the first of its kind in the United States, and will soon become a functional water supply alternative for the district's rapidly growing service area.
TRWD currently provides raw water to more than 1.6 million people in 10 counties. But that number is expected to increase to 4.3 million by 2060. This project will help the district meet those demands and push back the need to construct additional water supply reservoirs.
Located on Texas Parks and Wildlife's Richland Creek Wildlife Management Area on the Navarro-Freestone County line, the system consists of a series sedimentation ponds and wetland cells that naturally treat water diverted from the Trinity River and move it into Richland-Chamber Reservoir for future use. TRWD is currently authorized to divert 63,000 acre-feet of water per year from the Trinity River into Richland-Chambers Reservoir.
Work is currently underway to construct an additional 200 acres of wetland cells onto the 250-acre field scale wetlands project that began in 2002. The original pilot scale project began in 1992. The system will eventually feature 2,000 acres of high quality wetland habitat that can be used as a living filter for additional water supplies.
Operation of the wetland system is closely coordinated with Texas Parks and Wildlife biologists to maximize the wildlife benefits that a project of this nature can provide.

Fremont, CA Bicycle and Pedestrian Program

Type: Program
Status: Ongoing
Source File: http://www.ci.fremont.ca.us/Community/Traffic/BicycleAndPedestrianProgram.htm
Description:
Goals and Objectives
The City of Fremont's bicycle and pedestrian program's primary objective is to provide bicyclists and pedestrians with safe and accessible routes to all destinations within the City and outside the City, which are served by public roads, trails, transit, and rail.
The bicycle and pedestrian programs cover the "4 E's" - Engineering, Education, Encouragement, and Enforcement. Recognizing that an approach that draws from all 4 E's will be the most successful in improving safety and increasing the number of Fremont residents bicycling or walking to work, schools, shopping centers and recreation facilities.
The program also promotes accessibility and mobility for persons with special needs such as the elderly and the disabled by providing facilities that will assist them in their transportation needs. See Paratransit for additional details. 
2007 Fremont Pedestrian Master Plan
The Fremont Pedestrian Master Plan is a policy document intended to encourage walking as an alternative mode of travel in Fremont while implementing the pedestrian related goals and policies of the General Plan. The development of the Pedestrian Master Plan involved the City's Bicycle and Pedestrian Technical Advisory Committee (BPTAC) with extensive public input and 6 public meetings over the course of its development.
The Plan includes goals, policies, strategies, and phased recommendations that:
* Encourage walking as a means of travel.
* Improve the pathway system for people with disabilities and children walking to school.
* Increase the overall number of pedestrian trips.
It focuses on enhancing pedestrian safety at crosswalks and along streets, and provides a blueprint for improving residents' quality of life, creating a more sustainable environment, and reducing traffic, noise, and energy consumption.
2005 Bicycle Master Plan
The Fremont Bicycle Master Plan provides a blueprint for making bicycling an integral part of daily life in Fremont. The Bicycle Plan provides for a citywide system of bike lanes, bike routes, bike paths, bicycle parking, support facilities, and a variety of programs to allow for safe, efficient, and convenient bicycle travel within Fremont and connecting to destinations in adjacent cities.
This plan is consistent with the Fremont General Plan goal of "convenient alternatives to the automobile to conserve energy, reduce congestion, improve air quality and provide a variety of transportation choices to meet a variety of needs."
The Bicycle Advisory Committee
The Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) consists of the Recreation Commission members and is advisory to the City Council.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Technical Advisory Committee
The Bicycle and Pedestrian Technical Advisory Committee (BPTAC) is an advisory committee to staff in the City of Fremont's Transportation Department on matters pertaining to bicycle and pedestrian issues.

Fremont, CA Food Scrap Recycling

Type: Policy
Status: Ongoing
Source File: http://www.ci.fremont.ca.us/Environment/Recycling/FoodScrapRecycling.htm
Description:
Food scraps and food -soiled paper products make up the largest percentage of our garbage in Fremont. In fact, about 20% of what we throw away is food waste, and it does not need to go to a landfill. We need to find alternate ways to reduce waste and recycle more. By participating in the food scrap recycling program, your food scraps become compost, a valuable resource, not a waste.
Why should I recycle food scraps?
* Reduce the amount of garbage going to a landfill.
* Food scraps are made into compost and given out to residents free at the annual Compost Giveaway event.
* Cuts down on wear and tear on your garbage disposal.
* Reduces landfill emissions that contribute to climate change.
How do I recycle food scraps?
* Line your kitchen pail with a paper bag, newspaper, or compostable liner to help keep it clean.
* Scrape your dinner plate into your lined kitchen pail, not the garbage.
* Empty the kitchen pail, including liner, into your green cart.
Please put in following items in the green cart:
All Food Scraps
* Fruit, vegetables, and peelings
* Coffee grounds, filters, and tea bags
* Leftover foods (cooked raw)
* Meat and bones
* Bread, pasta, and rice
Food-Soiled Paper
* Paper towels and napkins 
* Paper plates and cups
* Paper egg cartons
* Milk, ice cream, and juice cartons
* Pizza boxes with or without pizza
More food scraps recycling info:
* Using the kitchen pail is not required. You can collect your food scraps in paper milk, juice, or ice cream cartons, paper take-our containers, or any other paper container that is convenient for you.
* Just add the food scraps directly into your green cart.
* If you are concerned about the mess or possibility of bugs, try lining the kitchen pail and emptying it often to keep the pail neat and clean.

Fresno, CA Zero Waste Strategic Action Plan

Type: Policy
Status: Approved on 2/11/08
Source File: Click here
Description:
What is Zero Waste?
Zero Waste Principles promote the highest and best use of materials to eliminate waste and pollution, emphasizing a closed-loop system of production and consumption, moving in logical increments toward the goal of zero waste through the core principles of:
* Pursuing 'upstream' re-design strategies to reduce the volume and toxicity of discarded products and materials, and promote low-impact or reduced consumption lifestyles;
* Fostering and supporting reuse of discarded products and materials to stimulate and drive local economic and workforce development; and 
* Improving 'downstream' recycling of end-of-life products and materials to ensure their highest and best use.
The city of Fresno Solid Waste Management Division collects 450,000 tons of trash, recyclables, and green waste annually from 105,000 single family homes, 2,500 multi-family complexes (approx. 30,000 units), and 4,000 businesses. As waste collection is a core business service of the Public Utilities Department of the City of Fresno, it is the responsibility of this department to manage these resources in the most cost efficient and ecological manner.
The new Zero Waste Goal changes the way we look at waste generation, focusing on three components:
* Reduce Up-Stream Wastes - "Waste Avoidance"
* Reuse Mid-Stream Wastes - "Reuse of Discards"
* Recycle Down -Stream Wastes - "End-of-Pipe Diversion" 
The City Recycling Team proposes a new City philosophy on the managing of our citizen's waste streams: "To manage our resources through the highest and best use hierarchy:
:Reduce,
:Reuse, then
:Recycle

* GOES-16 goes "First Light": http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=89506&src=eoa-iotd
Launched in November 2016 with the promise to revolutionize weather forecasting in the U.S.
The most advanced satellite NOAA has ever put in orbit has sent back its first pictures. In a press release, NOAA said the images are the start of an age of “high-definition from the heavens.”
This 16-panel image shows the continental United States in the two visible, four near-infrared and 10 infrared channels on ABI. These channels help forecasters distinguish between differences in the atmosphere like clouds, water vapor, smoke, ice and volcanic ash. GOES-16 has three-times more spectral channels than earlier generations of GOES satellites.
NOAA’s satellites are the backbone of its life-saving weather forecasts. GOES-16 will build upon and extend the more than 40-year legacy of satellite observations from NOAA ...
