We are grateful to Burlington Green and to the Bay Area Climate Change Council for asking municipal council candidates questions about climate change and the environment, including transportation.

In addition to their plans for the future and support of initiatives now underway, we most enjoyed the responses candidates shared about the actions they “personally take to minimize [their] environmental footprint.”

Here’s a quick look at who responded to the surveys and who didn’t (unable to reach or did not respond by the timeline). Take a look at the websites noted below to see the questions asked and the answers provided by each of the candidates.
