Section 2. Climate Vulnerability and GHG Emissions | 29Pleasanton Climate Action Plan 2.0 <br />2.4 CAP 2.0 Policy Focus <br />As described in the previous section, existing state legislation (i.e., <br />the ABAU forecast scenario) will help drive reductions in emissions. <br />Further driving reductions are local existing and ongoing actions. <br />However, that is not enough to reach the CAP 2.0 2030 target. As <br />shown in Figure 4, further local action is needed to close the gap <br />between the projected emissions and the CAP 2.0 target pathway. <br />This gap is the policy focus of the CAP 2.0. The CAP 2.0 outlines new <br />strategies and actions the City will implement over the next 10 years <br />that will achieve the interim 2030 CAP 2.0 target and set the City up <br />for success to meet the City’s long-term 2045 target of per-capita <br />carbon neutrality (see Section 3: Pleasanton’s Climate Solutions). <br />Figure 4. CAP 2.0 Policy Focus <br />Additional <br />emissions <br />reductions <br />needed to meet <br />2030 target: <br />Per Capita: 1.4 MTCO2e <br />Total in 2030: 116,000 MTCO2e <br />Cumulative through 2030: <br />750,000 MTCO2e <br />The City will monitor and assess <br />progress toward meeting the <br />2030 goal through recurring <br />GHG emission inventories. A <br />comprehensive inventory will be <br />conducted in 2030 to determine <br />whether the goal was met. <br />The following pages present <br />cumulative reduction <br />estimations for CAP 2.0 <br />strategies and actions to fully <br />capture the estimated impact <br />across CAP 2.0 implementation <br />years.
