Rocky Mount gets Cool

On Monday night the city of Rocky Mount signed onto the US Mayors Climate Protection Agreement! With Rocky Mount's signing we now have Cool Cities within the boundaries of 12 out of 13 of our local groups across North Carolina. Congratulations to Marghi Sowerwine and the Medoc Group. And we know you can do it South Mountains!

The agreement was signed by Mayor Frederick Turnage, who is about to leave office after 34 years as Mayor! Turnage said there was nothing he'd rather do before retiring than see Rocky Mount become a Cool City.

The Rocky Mount Telegram had a great story about Rocky Mount becoming a Cool City and its green efforts over the weekend. Check it out here.
