The First Community Climate Action Fair

Celebrating Climate Action

Community volunteers, activists, students and seniors are engaged with the issues around climate change. Our local communities are better for the engagement

The Lake Forest Park Climate Action plan has been accepted by the City Council. The plan highlights the goals of reducing local emissions, enhancing our environment and building resiliency.

The Climate Fair also highlighted a Climate Hub.

The wall to the right of the stage at Third Place Commons was mocked up to show what a Climate Hub might look like. The wall was papered and posters, information and questions were written on the papered wall.

What are the plans for the Climate Hub?

Imagine the wall to the right of the stage with a mural. The mural will be an opportunity for the community to be involved in the painting. Bulletin boards will be on cork boards and there will be a temperature timeline. 

If you are interested in staying connected to the climate hub send an email to lfpclimatehub@gmail.com  The Climate Hub will be coming early in 2025.
