2011 Climate Action Plan

The City of East Palo Alto’s original Climate Action Plan (CAP) was adopted in December 2011 with a goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 15% below 2005 levels by 2020. The City successfully completed 22 of the planned projects and exceeded its goal in just six years by reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 20%, avoiding emitting more than 27,000 metric tons of polluting carbon dioxide.

The City has since adopted a new 2030 Climate Action Plan -- see here for more information.
