Green Cincinnati Plan
The Green Cincinnati Plan (GCP) has helped establish Cincinnati as a national leader in sustainability and an attractive destination for businesses and individuals. The 2023 GCP presents eight Focus Areas: Buildings and Energy, City Operations, Community Activation, Food, Mobility, Natural Environment, Resilience and Climate Adaptation, and Zero Waste, that include a comprehensive set of 30 goals, 40 strategies and 130 actions to advance the sustainability, equity, and resilience of our city. Cincinnati City Council adopted the 2023 Green Cincinnati Plan on Wednesday, April 19, 2023.
