The 2025 Draft Climate Action Plan (CAP) Update (GPA250007) has been released to the public for review and comments. The 2025 CAP Update refines the County's efforts to meet greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction strategies, specifically for the years 2035 and 2050. The 2025 CAP Update builds upon the GHG reduction strategies in the 2019 CAP.
