Funding! These are actions that generally have significant costs and time investments which lead to <br />bottlenecks- ex: people are willing to put in native landscaping to reduce watering but the plants <br />cost a ton and so does the time investment so they don’t take the action. <br />Education <br />Financial support <br />Support to increase knowledge around options available and ways to reduce cost of <br />implementation. <br />Information and research results from tests on alternative energy resources. <br />Inflation reduction act reference guide it a great start! <br />None <br />Knowledge about programs such as community gardens and composting. <br />Wind power could be an option for our house, as solar power isn't . I'd love more info and a city plan <br />around this, as it has done with solar energy. <br />information! <br />None <br />Education about what to do. <br />More compost bags at the town hall. <br />Knowledge of programs that incentivevize switching from gas to electric <br />Support (grant or just clarity regarding code) for replacing lawn <br />discount programs, outreach education <br />Energy subsidies. Could use less water if SAV water wasn’t so hard - the soening process wastes <br />water. <br />Tax incentives, policies from the city that support and do not mitigate climate action. For example, <br />pollinator pathway incentives are given to people who also spray chemicals on their lawns, which <br />has n immediate and deadly impact to pollinators. Therefore the pollinator benefits are negated. Any <br />incentive programs should include commitments that wholeheartedly embrace change and <br />improvement . Also, stop having people that are not climate experts (or even aware) commenting on <br />the environment . Council member Jan Jenson gave a ridiculous interview on rain gardens last year <br />that was completely uninformed and outright incorrect , which likely discouraged people from <br />converting grass (which has almost zero climate benefits) to native plants which have all the <br />benefits. <br />Not sure. <br />Organized, task-oriented groups, or planning guides/access to experts to help guide/encourage <br />residents to make significant changes that will help sustain or slow down climate change. <br />City circulating electric bus in Saint Anthony <br />Educational resources. <br />Tolerance of steps I’m taking, ordinances to reduce lawn spraying with herbicides & pesticides & <br />lawn watering, more composting sites. <br />None <br />Supporting non-car transportation modes by prioritizing St . Anthony residents over non-resident <br />cars. Encouraging increased housing density on R1 zoned properties or blending R1 and R1A. <br />Education about about what I can do. <br />Bikeways, public EV charging stations, bike parking minimums, car parking maximums, more <br />sidewalks and safer/more frequent crosswalks <br />Not sure <br />Make the city streets bike/walk friendly. Connect to existing bike/walk trails. <br />grants for native garden replacement of grass. I know many neighbors interested in this switch. <br />Possibly financial help/guidance on how to install a native lawn. I know someone who did Lawns to <br />Legumes and planted all clover in her yard.
