Welcome to the let’s get there Playbook,
a compilation of best practices for climate action.
It’s getting hotter. Sea levels are rising. There are more intense storms and fire events because our typical daily activities release greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions into the air, creating an atmospheric blanket that traps heat and warms our planet.
You are part of the solution. You can help communities throughout the San Diego Region adapt to the changing climate and move toward a future where our air is fresh and neighborhoods are green. A future where we live our lives without adding more GHGs into the atmosphere.
By mid-Century we have a goal of net-zero GHG emissions in the San Diego Region and this Playbook offers a path for us all to meet that goal. Let’s get there!
