Working group meeting notice for Mass Ave Planning Study. We will be discussing the basics of zoning, and our approach to community planning for Porter Square.

Cambridge builds resilience by strengthening community connections. Learn about opportunities to volunteer, as well as shared resources like parks, walking paths, public transit, and electric vehicle chargers.

The climate is changing, and we're all here on the planet together. Join us for a monthly community gathering and discussion of a variety of books about climate change. We will share thoughts, resources, and occasionally host special guests in a welcoming small-group environment. For our May meeting, we will discuss The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben, which was originally our book for February but due to weather, we couldn't meet. Attendees are invited to choose between reading the original text, the illustrated edition, the graphic adaptation, or watching the film version of this book! This work is available in many different formats. Copies of the print book, the illustrated edition, the graphic adaptation, and the DVD are available at the Main Library Q&A Desk. E-book and e-audiobook copies are available to borrow on the Libby app and immediately on the Hoopla app. This is a hybrid event. A Zoom link will be sent to all registered participants 1 hour before the event. Registration is required. Please contact alengel@cambridgema.gov with questions.

Cambridge has regulations that require buildings to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, be fossil fuel free, be energy efficient, improve resiliency, and prepare for the impacts of climate change. The City is also holding itself to the same standards by making municipal buildings green.
