The City of Lafayette is developing its first Climate Action Plan (CAP) to provide a comprehensive and holistic update to our existing Sustainability Plan. The CAP will outline key actions the City will take to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and prepare our community for the impacts of climate change. The CAP also identifies climate action strategies that improve equity, increase community resilience, and protect ecosystems in Lafayette. Research, development, and prioritization of various actions and policies will help us identify our climate goals and ensure alignment with other City and regional plans. By acting now, the City can proactively help protect the health and well-being of our community, economy, and environment.
Each section of the Climate Action Plan is dedicated to a key focus area. Each focus area contains an overarching goal, followed by a table listing the strategies, actions, and key themes addressed. The strategies offer a clear and actionable roadmap for lowering Lafayette’s greenhouse gas emissions while promoting community resilience and adaptation to the unavoidable impacts of climate change.
The strategies are also tailored to address the unique emissions trends and projected climate risks specific to Lafayette and Boulder County. Lafayette’s goals, strategies, and actions are broken into seven key focus areas. Together, these represent Lafayette’s plan for climate action. The seven focus areas include Energy, Transportation, Community Resilience, Natural Environment, Water, Circular Economy, and Air Quality.
