In the 2018 CAP, the City committed to updating the CAP every five years. The CAP update process has been initiated. Currently, a new baseline greenhouse gas emission inventory and projected emissions estimates are under development.
As the City develops new targets, goals and measures for the CAP, staff will seek public input and suggestions on the actions the City can take to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The City will host a number of workshops and public hearings for community members to share their input on the CAP update.
Opportunities to participate in the process will be announced as meetings and events are scheduled.
If you are interested in receiving updates about the CAP update process please sign up for e-notifications for the “Climate Action Plan” here
Questions or comments may be submitted to climateaction@encinitasca.gov.
