Run On Climate has compiled and analyzed the past GHG emissions data of all Local Climate Policy Network member jurisdictions from 2019-2024. That included identifying the 10 LCPN cities and counties that reduced their per capita direct emissions the most from 2019 to 2024 and the 10 LCPN cities and counties with the lowest per capita direct emissions in 2024.
Despite these jurisdictions' performance, much work remains! Only two cities appear on both lists: Lawrence and Brookline, MA.
