HCR 49 Vermont House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

House concurrent resolution recognizing March 21, 2025 as World Day for Glaciers in Vermont

This is a procedural resolution, not a law. It formally recognizes March 21, 2025 (the first World Day for Glaciers) as "World Day for Glaciers in Vermont" and directs the Secretary of State to send a copy to the UN Secretary-General. It aligns with a UN resolution urging global awareness of glacier preservation due to climate impacts. The resolution has no direct effect on Vermont residents or new policies; it serves only as a symbolic gesture of support for international climate awareness efforts.
