Thank you, Bozeman, for committing to a more sustainable future!

Climate Vision

Through leadership and collaboration, the City of Bozeman will advance innovative solutions to cultivate a more equitable and resilient low-carbon future for current and future generations.

Guiding Principles

Bozeman will be a leader in addressing climate change by:

• Adopting bold targets for emissions reduction and renewable energy.
• Seeking innovative, actionable solutions to mitigate climate change.
• Weaving sustainability and resilience into decision-making processes.
• Pursuing partnerships with other municipalities and our utility provider.
• Inviting all Bozeman residents to join us, including current and future leaders. 

Mitigation and Resiliency Goals

The Bozeman Climate Plan adopted bold emission mitigation targets to set a pathway to carbon neutrality by 2050, starting with significantly reducing emissions in the next five years, then transitioning to 100% net clean electricity within 10 years.

Resiliency goals are paired with the mitigation goals to address the impacts of climate change identified in the 2019 City of Bozeman Vulnerability Assessment and Resiliency Strategy. 

Cross-Cutting Topics

Three cross-cutting topics are infused throughout the entire plan: equity, health and well-being, and City of Bozeman assets. Each component of this plan was developed within the context  of  these  three  topics,  highlighting  their  importance  and  relevance  to  each  focus  area.
