Declaring a Climate Emergency in Roseville <br />Councilmember Strahan explained she was asking for a declaration of climate <br />emergency as a representative on a climate caucus with other Legislators and Mu- <br />nicipal leaders throughout the State of Minnesota. The group is working on a col- <br />lective action to declare a climate emergency. She noted there are close to twenty <br />municipal and county governments that have declared a climate emergency and <br />the media has already started coverage this week around this item. <br />Councilmember Strahan explained the reason she brought this forward was that <br />she knew that the City is often very driven by actionable resolutions and most of <br />the things the City has been working on as a City in the last year already contrib- <br />uted to the work that is being done. She wanted to show the residents in the City <br />that rather than having them look at that and ask why Roseville not on there, that <br />this be a public display of the many things the City has already done and hold the <br />City to the task of continuing to take serious efforts on climate action.
