Education <br /> <br />Effectively communicating to a CIty'S staff the Importance and impact of taking actions to <br />reduce global warming pollution is key to the success of the following measures. Motivating <br />staff to partner and pioneer simple energy and water conservation actions and implement <br />complex measures is integral to ensuring the success of programs. See the [dIJOH10fl and <br />Oulreactl page for more information <br /> <br />:. Clean Fleets and Fuel <br /> <br />From restricting the idling of all city staff vehicles or assigning police officers to patrol on <br />bicycles in dense urban areas to purchasing the most fuel efficient vehicles pOSSible or <br />using alternative fuels - cities can reduce emissions and costs from what IS often one of <br />the largest sources of global warmIng pollution - transportation. See the Trall<.oortatloll <br />page for more information <br /> <br />:. Recycling <br /> <br />Waste prevention and recycling reduces global warming pollution by reducing methane <br />emissions and savIng energy RedUCing the waste stream produced by city staff operations <br />cuts the volume of waste disposed. reduces solid waste collection fees and can even <br />gencrate revenue. In 2001 ICLEI found that more than 70 percent of reported global <br />warming pollution reductions from CCP participants were due to waste-related actiVities. <br />See the Rccyclinn :m(1 W(JS!C Reduction page for more information. <br /> <br />:. Switch to LED's or CFL's <br /> <br />Save energy and maintenance costs by SWitching to LEOs tlight Emitting Diodes) In traffic <br />signals and exit lights. Use CFLS (Compact Fluorescent Lights) to light municipal buildings. <br />LEOs are 90 percent more energy efficient and last 6-10 times longer than conventional <br />lights and CFLs use up to 66 percent less energy than a standard incandescent bulb and <br />last up to 10 times longer. Both LEOS and CFLs significantly lower both energy and <br />maintenance costs. See the rll0.r~]y ffflclcnc'l page for more Information. <br /> <br />:. Turn out the lights at night <br /> <br />Instituting a "lights out at night" or "while not in use" policy is an easy and effective way <br />to save electricity. reduce global warming pollution. and save muniCIpal dollars. This can be <br />accomplished through educational campaigns and through tcchnology. such as timers and <br />occupancy sensors. See the [nemv t IhcICIlC'I page for morc information. <br />
