In April of 2017, the County passed a resolution upholding the Paris Climate <br /> Agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions between 25 and 28 percent by 2025 from 2005 levels. The <br /> electrification of Orange County's vehicle fleet is also a key step in reaching the County's goal of moving to 100% <br /> renewable energy by 2050.This resolution was passed in September of 2017. Copies of these resolutions are <br /> available upon request.An update to the County's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory is underway and will <br /> lead to the county's first emissions reduction planning process starting in the fall of 2018. Fleet electrification <br /> will be an important strategy elaborated within this plan,and having this vehicle as a pilot will help add concrete <br /> data to the broad-ranging effort. <br />
