The Yolo County Department of Community Services' Sustainability Division is pleased to announce the third round of Community Workshops and the launch of the draft 2030 Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP) Public Comment Portal. Y
Yolo County residents are invited to review and provide feedback on the draft CAAP between June 7 and July 10 through the link provided below.
In 2020, the Yolo County Board of Supervisors set the goal of achieving a carbon-negative footprint by 2030, with a focus on equity and justice. The CAAP is a roadmap outlining the actions Yolo County will take to meet this goal, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and become more resilient to climate change. Driven by public input, the plan will include recommendations for lowering emissions, protecting natural resources, using more renewable energy, supporting sustainable agricultural practices, and more. The CAAP is designed to benefit all community members and promote health, equity, and resilience in all processes and outcomes.
As part of the CAAP's pending update, community members and community-based organizations are encouraged to join one of six upcoming draft CAAP Review Workshops. Here, they will have the opportunity to discuss the draft CAAP's strategies, measures, and actions, and provide public comment. Free food and childcare will be provided to community members at all in-person draft CAAP Workshop sessions.
