ORGANIZATION: SANDIEGO350

  • 30 people are interested

Join the Climate Action Plan (CAP) Committee! The CAP team advocates for municipalities throughout the San Diego region to adopt ambitious, measurable, and enforceable strategies within their Climate Action Plans.
Climate Action Plans are the key planning documents that municipalities use to guide their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and their key sectors including energy, transportation, solid waste, land use, and urban design.

What You’ll Do:

    • Research climate policies that cities can implement in their CAPs
    • Participate in workshops and public hearings on CAP updates and policies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
    • Meet with elected officials and policymakers to educate and inform them about the need and benefits of good climate policies.
    • Host webinars and forums to educate and activate our fellow residents in the region
Regular Meetings:
    • The Climate Action Plan Committee meets on the second Wednesday of every month from 5:00 - 6:00 pm.
No experience necessary, just a passion to learn!

Mission Statement

SanDiego350 is building a movement to prevent the worst impacts of climate change and climate injustice through education and outreach, public policy advocacy, and mobilizing people to take action.

Description

Our vision is for an informed, mobilized and united community that is empowered to reduce our carbon footprint, and hold our elected officials accountable for creating a low-carbon, sustainable and just world. Our power comes from our alliance with social justice, environmental, labor, health, faith and other partners.

History

In September 2011 we brought together hundreds of San Diego County residents, and we collectively called on our elected representatives to take immediate, strong action on climate change as part of 350.org’s international day of action on climate change. After that event, we decided to form a group and started organizing San Diegans to take action on climate change. We’ve organized San Diego’s largest climate mobilizations, including the 5,500-person "People’s Climate March" in 2017.
