Andrew Gottlieb s take on Climate Change Sunday on Zoom
The Register
Join the Cape Cod Maritime Museum online this Sunday at 2 p.m. to hear Andrew Gottlieb, executive director of the Association to Preserve Cape Cod (APCC), speak about the urgent issues surrounding Climate Change on Cape Cod.
Scientific data shows that the northeastern U.S., including Cape Cod, will experience dramatic increases in sea level rise due to climate change. The region can also expect increasingly warmer temperatures, more droughts and an increased frequency in extreme weather.
Since it was founded in 1968, APCC has helped restore natural resources in every town on the Cape, procured better environmental policy at the county, state and federal level, and brought in millions of dollars to improve, protect and preserve Cape Cod. Gottlieb brings extensive environmental protection experience in local, state and county government to his work with APCC.

BARNSTABLE Back in 2018, local environmental activists were dismayed at proposed Cape Cod Commission updates to the Regional Policy Plan addressing climate change, saying they lacked the specificity and sense of urgency needed to address the most pressing issue of our time.
Responding to a citizens’ petition, the commission last summer created a subcommittee with an ambitious agenda: Meet for six months and return with a better suite of amendments to the regional plan.
Amendments unanimously approved
Last week, those changes were unveiled to the Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates. The amendments included objectives addressing coastal resiliency; addressing low-carbon emission strategies in the transportation and housing sectors; strengthening the role of climate change planning; and supporting infrastructure that reduces reliance on fossil fuels.
