PP-6: Advance social and economic equity

Prioritize climate policies that advance social and economic equity for high-vulnerability populations and limited-income residents.

Identify the factors that can impact social and economic equity locally.

Create climate policies supporting infrastructure that mitigates those factors. See recommendation EQ-9 for further information. Factors to consider include:

  1. Public transportation
  2. Energy efficiency
  3. Affordable housing
  4. Green space

Include representatives from vulnerable communities and intermediary organizations in the policy-making process.
