CAC tweaks GHG infographic, plans outreach and raises water‑management concerns for 2026 work plan
Summary
The committee revised a draft GHG 2022 infographic (adding a percentage‑change graph, a 'No Idling' callout and an updated QR code), discussed EcoMaine educational material, and recommended outreach on water‑management capacity as part of the 2026 work plan.
At its Feb. 2 meeting the Kennebunk Climate Action Committee reviewed edits to a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions infographic for 2022, discussed outreach items for the committee’s 2026 work plan, and proposed reviewing an EcoMaine presentation for public education content.
Members recorded that Mary Naples created a new graph for the GHG infographic showing percentage change, and that committee members recommended explaining why the data are from 2022. Suggestions included adding more actionable items for community members, incorporating a "No Idling" policy callout and reprogramming the infographic QR code to link directly to the CAC webpage.
Tom Wellman raised a separate concern for the 2026 work plan: outreach on water‑management capacity and whether existing infrastructure can accommodate the town’s number of residents. The committee suggested integrating public education about water management into outreach planning.
The committee also suggested reviewing EcoMaine’s Jan. 12 presentation to the planning board and developing an educational infographic about how EcoMaine’s program could save the town money; members proposed posting that after the GHG infographic release.
The minutes record those items as discussion and planning guidance; no formal policy actions or budget approvals were taken during the session.
