CARBON FOOTPRINT EXHIBITS
| Provider | Event Description |
| Cool Cities Campaign | The Town of Winchester is in the process of measuring its municipal carbon footprint and creating a greenhouse gas inventory as part of our participation in the Sierra Club's Cool Cities program (CoolCities.us). The next step will be to set targets for future emissions. |
| LiveCooler Foundation | Ready to make a change? The LiveCooler Foundation will help you take a step to offset your carbon footprint with the proceeds earmarked to provide energy-efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) to the Winchester's Housing Authority, where the bulbs will go to elderly/low-income housing. |
| Mass Climate Action | Learn about adopting a low carbon diet and see how you can reduce your own carbon footprint . |
| Pledge To Commit | Now is the time to convert education into action!

The goal of these steps is to reduce Winchester’s emissions of greenhouse gases that cause global warming. Collectively, we can make a difference and cool down our planet!
