Climate Action Plan & Our Climate, Our Future
Our Climate, Our Future
When the City of San Diego released the landmark 
Climate Action Plan in 2015, it included a commitment to update the plan in 2020. We’re proud to announce that Our Climate, Our Future will be an expanded vision for climate action in San Diego.
Local efforts will be aligned with national and global goals for creating a more sustainable future for all - elevating equity, renewable energy and economic opportunity.
We are striving to reflect the viewpoints, priorities and needs of San Diego’s residents and communities.
