PP-1: Support climate-conscious government action
Support—at all levels of government—policy, legislation, and funding to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in all sectors, use less energy and water, deploy renewable energy and low-carbon transportation, prepare for and adapt to climate impacts, build community resilience, and study climate and earth science.
Integrate the Regional Climate Action Plan (RCAP) objectives in all planning and policies developed by local governments and agencies. Focus efforts on specific recommendations that require a policy or policy process change.
Advocate for state and federal policy changes that aid local climate work, as outlined in RCAP recommendations. Coordinate and develop regional advocacy through the Compact Policy Working Group (see recommendation PP-2).
