Section 1. Introduction | 16Pleasanton Climate Action Plan 2.0 1.4 CAP 2.0 Local and Regional Context The CAP 2.0 does not exist within a vacuum. To understand the strategies, gaps, and opportunities that exist, the City and professional services team reviewed relevant existing plans, policies, and programs that inform or relate to current and future climate activities in the City. Development of CAP 2.0 also intentionally aligned with and built upon several sustainability- related plans and efforts (see Figure 1 on the next page). Table 3 (right) links to the various documents reviewed for the City of Pleasanton Baseline Assessment. Figure 1 (next page) highlights the City's key sustainability actions to date. Beyond Pleasanton’s immediate context, regional efforts include but are not limited to: • Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) programs (e.g., Climate Protection Planning Program, Healthy Homes Initiative, and Wildfire Air Quality Response Program) • Alameda County programs (e.g., Green Business Certification, Climate Protection Project, and Cool Counties Climate Stabilization Declaration) • StopWaste.org programs that help the community waste less and use resources more efficiently • Plan Bay Area 2040 details how the nine-county Bay Area can make progress toward the region’s long-range transportation and land use goals • Climate action plans in neighboring jurisdictions (e.g., Dublin and Livermore recently established GHG reduction targets for carbon neutrality by 2045) Table 3.
