BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City of Northampton's climate mobilization should also: (1)
accelerate adaptation and resilience strategies in preparation for intensifying local and global
climate impacts; (2) continue to protect trees, forests, and other open spaces because of their
ability to draw carbon out of the atmosphere and store it; (3) protect the habitats and corridors
of wildlife that are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change; and (4) ensure that the costs of
such mobilization efforts do not unfairly burden those who are economically or socially
disadvantaged and that the benefits of a realized, sustainable future accrue to all.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Administrative Assistant to the City Council shall send a copy
of this Resolution to Representative Lindsay Sabadosa and Senator Jo Comerford, as well as
Governor Charles Baker, DOER Commissioner Patrick Woodcock, and the Co -Chairs and Vice Co -
Chairs of the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities, and Energy, Senators Mike
Barrett and Mark Pacheco and Representatives Jeffrey Roy and Paul Mark.
