    The Municipality of the District of Lunenburg (MODL) is developing a Local Climate Change Action Plan (2021-2030), to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and prepare MODL for the impacts of a changing climate. The Plan is being built around a central vision that MODL will be a low carbon community, with the long-term goal of becoming a sustainable, climate-resilient, and net-zero community. The Plan will identify and prioritize several key action items that will be delivered over the next 10 years. This will be a community plan and we want to hear from residents, farmers, local businesses, community groups and youth on how we can address climate change, and ensure MODL continues to be a great place to live.

    Your feedback will help shape our Local Climate Change Action Plan. Please take the next 5-8 minutes to complete this survey.

    The deadline to complete this survey is February 28, 2022.
