City of San Diego Climate Action Plan
San Diego’s Climate Action Plan: Our Climate, Our Future commits to 100% clean energy by 2035 in addition to the following targets: 50% of commutes in urban areas via transit, walking, and biking; 35% tree coverage throughout the city; and 90% waste reduction (Zero Waste by 2040)
The city hired a Climate Equity Specialist to ensure social equity in CAP implementation and developed a Climate Equity Index to identify communities that should be prioritized when investing in CAP projects and programs.
To reach the 100% clean energy commitment, the city established the Community Choice Energy program San Diego Community Power (SDCP) together with with Encinitas, Imperial Beach and La Mesa.
