Minneapolis is making waves with ambitious plans to kick up its climate action agenda, as city leaders gather at the Mercado Central to make a buzzy announcement. Council President Elliott Payne, Council Member Katie Cashman, and an unidentified "I" were among those who voiced their intention of transforming the hub into a zero-energy building. This eco-friendly move underscores the city's broader commitment to greening up its act.
Officials announced the week of action as a lively one, marked by the unveiling of plans to become a zero-energy building, in partnership with Unidos MN. Thrilling for environmentalists and economy watchers, the duo of council members spoke on ramping up the city's $10 million investment into initiatives that focus on climate action, workforce development, and environmental justice, according to Jason Chavez - Minneapolis Ward 9.
