The MI Healthy Climate Plan lays out a pathway for Michigan to reach 100% carbon neutrality by 2050. The responsibility for implementing this Plan and refining it belongs to all of us including community leaders and advocates from cities, villages, and townships across Michigan. Both rural and urban planners and officials each have a role to play.

MAP’s Spring Institute: Renewable Energy Summit will address how planners can meet the economic, social, environmental and climate challenges of the future.
