11 <br /> • To proportionally uphold the Paris Climate Agreement to reduce greenhouse gas <br /> emissions between 26-28 percent by 2025 from 2005 levels. <br /> • Transition to a 100% renewable energy-based economy by 2050. <br /> • Signatory to the Global Covenant of Mayors pledging to reduce greenhouse gas <br /> emissions, enhance resilience to climate change, and track progress transparently. <br /> As part of the County's on-going efforts to accelerate the mitigation of climate change, the County <br /> began a climate action planning process in November 2022 utilizing the professional services of <br /> Bluestrike Environmental Consulting to synthesize the work the County is already doing, to build <br /> upon the collaborative efforts and progress made with regional partners and the Towns, and to <br /> develop a suite of strategies, or"roadmap" for the County to follow to achieve its climate goals. <br /> Key elements of the CAP include an updated GHG inventory. The GHG inventory describes <br /> which sectors contribute the most GHG emissions in Orange County and helps gauge progress <br /> towards reducing these emissions compared to previous GHG inventories completed in 2005 <br /> and 2017. The results of the GHG inventory have helped prioritize Climate Action Plan strategies <br /> based on which measures will have the most impact on reducing GHG emissions. <br /> Other key components of the plan include a robust community/stakeholder engagement process <br /> that has helped shape specific climate action strategies. The plan also includes methodology for <br /> implementation, evaluation and updating. In addition, Bluestrike has prepared a comprehensive <br /> funding plan linked to climate action plan strategies, and designed a climate action plan <br /> dashboard that will display progress related to the plan's implementation on the County's website. <br /> The draft Climate Action Plan was presented to the Board of County Commissioners at the <br /> September 5, 2023 Business meeting. Comments were received from Board members and <br /> incorporated into the final Climate Action Plan. <br /> The draft Climate Action Plan was also presented at a community symposium event in early <br /> September and a month-long public comment period was established to receive feedback <br /> through an on-line forum. Based on community feedback received, adjustments were made to <br /> several action items in the draft Climate Action Plan that was presented to the Board on <br /> September 5, 2023. Some key updates include: <br /> • Added the newly announced American Climate Corps program in the CAP as a way to <br /> involve more youth directly with CAP actions; <br /> • Moved up the study date for curbside composting due to strong community support. This <br /> action was seen as a "gateway" action that can drive community interest and <br /> understanding in climate action; <br /> • Included several new actions prioritizing conservation of green spaces, preventing urban <br /> sprawl, and promoting sustainable land use; <br /> • Added action to develop a mechanism for the community to donate to the Community <br /> Climate Action Grant Program to expand capacity to fund community climate action <br /> projects; <br /> • Added action to promote safety and purposeful connection of existing and future bike <br /> trails and bike lanes that promote sustainable travel and connectivity. <br /> The Commission for the Environment also reviewed the draft CAP and provided extensive <br /> feedback to improve actions, graphs, and made refinements to wording which has been <br /> incorporated into the final CAP. <br />
