Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon, from his  state of the city address:

I returned just two hours ago, from a trip to Washington — and a face-to-face meeting with Energy Secretary Steven Chu. I took Dr. Crow with me (although I forgot to bring him back). We talked to the Secretary about the importance of renewable energy sources — the importance of freeing ourselves from our dependency on foreign oil – and the jobs that will come to the city that leads on this issue.

I told him that Phoenix would lead – and we’ll do it with “Green Phoenix” – a 17-point plan which, in short, is designed to make Phoenix, America’s first Carbon-Neutral City – America’s Greenest City. It is a plan that already has the Secretary’s endorsement – and a plan I am excited to share with you today.

Apparently details have yet to emerge, but stay tuned.
