Strategies

Support a four-tiered approach to outdoor pest control that minimizes potential hazards to people, property, and the environment

Establish programs that connect students at risk of dropping out with trained adult mentors who provide ongoing guidance for academic and personal challenges

Support site-specific plans for crop production that match nutrient applications to crop needs, typically with agricultural best management practices

Provide incentives to trade in old cars or light duty trucks with low fuel efficiency and high emissions and buy new vehicles with higher efficiency and lower emissions; also called scrappage or vehicle early retirement programs
