DULUTH, MN-- The City of Duluth is the winner of the Sustainable City Award for 2022 from the League of Minnesota Cities Annual Conference.

The city received the award Thursday night.

The award is given each year to a city that is working to achieve sustainability goals that align with one or more of the GreenStep Cities program’s 29 best practices.

They picked Duluth because the city passed its first climate action work plan this year.

That plan outlines strategies to not only deal with climate change but also reach carbon neutrality and net zero emissions by 2050.
