Climate Mayors

From Wall of Us: suggestion that you contact your mayor (with links) to ask her or him to sign up with the list of Climate Mayors in support of the Paris Accord. (I live in Jersey City, where the mayor is already onside, yay!)

If you live somewhere that doesn't have a mayor, check with your town/village government. The town manager here in Arlington, Mass., wasted no time in assuring us (on behalf of the board of selectmen*) that the town is committed to the Paris Climate Agreement.

*Yes, the term is archaic and suboptimal, but I gather that enough people here find both "selectpeople" and "select board" awkward or irksome that no change is likely.
