From YouTube: Climate Action Plan 2.0 Public Workshop #1
Description
On July 29, Cupertino City Staff and Cascadia Consulting led a conversation about the City’s sustainability initiatives, current state of the climate crisis, and opened the floor to public comment.
During this workshop, a series of environmental topics were discussed including energy, transportation, waste, water, and community resilience.

A
A
A
A
We've
learned
a
lot
in
the
last
year
from
digital
events,
and
so,
while
we're
hoping
that
our
one
of
our
next
workshops
is
going
to
be
in
person,
we're
really
pleased
with
the
number
of
people
who've
registered,
to
attend
and
filled
out
our
survey
so
far,
so
this
is
going
to
be
the
best
of
the
digital
presentations.
Everything
we've
learned
about
doing
this
kind
of
event
and
during
2020.
A
A
I
would
really
like
to
hear
from
all
of
you
we're
really
here
to
first
do
a
little
bit
of
learning
we're
going
to
share
share
with
all
of
you
from
the
city
perspective.
What
what
we're
up
to
what
we
have
been
doing
in
the
space
of
climate
action,
and
also
doing
a
little
bit
of
learning
about
what
we're
revisioning
for
this
update
to
our
climate
action
plan?
A
We're
really
here
to
to
spend
the
most
most
of
our
time
in
collaborating
and
asking
you
to
share
your
priorities.
Your
concerns,
your
thoughts
with
us.
This
is
really
just
going
to
be
a
huge
part
of
our
process
in
just
collecting
your
your
preferences,
as
we
create
this
plan
and
the
roadmap
towards
a
carbon
neutral
cupertino,
and
we
also
want
you
to
connect
with
the
community.
So
we're
really
excited
about
the
new
website
that
we
have
set
up
for
this
process.
A
A
So
we're
just
going
to
do
a
quick
introduction
of
our
team
members
here
we're
going
to
talk
about
the
climate
action
plan,
2.0
and
what's
been
accomplished
so
far,
and
then
we're
going
to
the
we're
going
to
step
into
a
portion
of
the
meeting
in
the
back
half
where
we're
going
to
step
through
each
of
the
focus
areas
that
we
have
in
our
key
emission
sectors
and
then
get
your
feedback.
So
we'll
have
a
few
polling
features
that
we'll
talk
about
in
just
one
minute
to
solicit
all
that
feedback.
A
You'll
have
the
ability
to
submit
questions
in
the
q
a
box
respond
to
polls
here
using
the
zoom
features,
as
well
as
to
raise
your
hand
and
be
recognized
to
speak.
So
all
of
that
will
hopefully
provide
you
with
a
fair
amount
of
space
and
ability
to
interact
with
us
in
addition
to
the
website
and
other
means
that
we're
going
to
tell
you
about
later
so
a
little
bit
about
our
goals.
For
today,
a
little
bit
more
again.
We
just
want
to
introduce
the
process.
B
A
B
Number
of
upvotes
you,
if
you're
using
your
computer,
we
recommend
that
being
the
best
way
to
connect
and
have
an
optimal
experience
today,
because
we
are
showing
our
screen
and
have
a
powerpoint
presentation
and
some
visuals
to
share
with
you.
But
if
you're
joining
by
phone,
that's
fine
to
welcome
everyone
and
we'll
make
sure
that
everyone
can
have
a
good
experience
today
and
then.
Finally,
we
want
to
encourage
you
to
share
your
feedback
and
ideas
to
panelists
via
the
chat.
B
So
if
you
go
into
your
controls
at
the
bottom
window,
you
click
on
chat
and
the
chat
window
will
appear
type
in
your
messages
and
press
enter
to
send,
and
this
is
how
you'll
be
able
to
answer
some
of
the
open-ended
questions
that
we'll
have
for
you
throughout
the
workshop,
so
feel
free
to
use
that
feature,
and
let
us
know
if
you
have
any
issues
with
that
and
feel
free
to
chat
the
panelists
anytime,
all
right
next
slide.
Please.
B
Okay,
so
we
wanted
this
to
be
as
interactive
as
it
can
be.
So
we
have
a
couple
of
warm-up
poll
questions
that
we'd
love
to
present
to
you
so
maddie.
If
you
wouldn't
mind
pulling
those
up-
okay,
great
thanks,
so
those
who
are
able
to
view
we
have
a
couple
questions,
one
about
anything,
you've
noticed
or
experienced,
and
the
changes
in
the
environment
since
you
started
living
or
working
in
cupertino
and
then
how
familiar
you
are
with
climate
change
concepts.
So
if
you
could
take
a
moment
to
respond
to
that,
we'd
appreciate
it.
B
Okay,
go
ahead
and
end
that
poll.
Thank
you.
So
it
sounds
like
most
people
have
experienced
or
noticed
changes
in
the
environment
since
you
started
living
or
working
in
cupertino,
some
folks
aren't
sure,
but
definitely
testament
on
the
ground
to
climate
change
there
and
in
terms
of
familiarity.
It
looks
like
most
folks
are
either
well
informed
or
familiar
with
climate
change
issues.
So
thanks
for
providing
that
input,
that'll
help
us
be
able
to
tailor
the
presentation
and
our
engagement
through
this
process
all
right
next
slide.
Please.
B
B
B
All
right
great,
so
it
looks
like
folks
are
excited
to
hear
about
housing
and
transportation
want
to
do
their
part.
Thank
you
excited
for
updates
on
the
greenhouse
gas
reduction
target
want
to
know
what
cupertino
is
up
to
in
terms
of
initiatives.
More.
What's
going
on,
let's
see
trajectory
in
the
climate
action
plan
want
to
be
able
to
voice
your
opinion,
stay
informed.
B
B
Okay,
so
we're
going
to
transition
to
a
presentation
sounds
like
folks
want
to
know
more
about
the
climate
action
plan
more
about
what
the
city
is
up
to,
which
is
perfect,
because
that
is
a
what
we'll
be
presenting
next.
So
I'm
going
to
hand
it
over
to
andre
to
provide
an
overview
of
this
updated
climate
action
plan.
A
Thanks
so
much
andrea
and
thanks
everyone
for
such
thoughtful
responses
and
the
warm-up
questions,
so
hopefully
that's
getting
your
brains
moving
a
little
bit
so
I'll
have
a
brief
presentation
I'll
try
to
keep
it
to
10
minutes
or
less.
So
we
have
more
time
for
the
interactive
portion,
but
we
really
want
to
give
a
high
level
of
you
know
what
climate
change
looks
like
in
cupertino
and
and
then
step
more
into
some
information
about
the
process.
A
So
if
you
go
to
the
next
side,
please-
and
I
do
encourage
folks
to
do
use
that
q,
a
chat
box
feature
that'll,
be
the
best
way
to
get
your
questions
tagged
and
our
team
will
then
be
sorting
and
making
sure
those
questions
either
answered
in
the
chat
box
itself
or
will
be
flagged
for
us
to
answer
live.
So
please
do
type
in
those
questions
or
comments
as
soon
as
they
hit
your
brain
and
it'll
get
straight
to
us.
So
what
does
climate
change
really
look
like
here
in
cupertino?
A
A
This
really
does
increase
risk
for
our
community
from
what
you
might
call
you
know,
black
swan
events
or
something
that
may
have
happened.
Every
100
years
now
may
be
happening
more
more
frequently
things
like
extreme
droughts,
the
hazardous
air
quality
from
our
wildfires
last
year,
outages
in
our
critical
infrastructure,
be
it
water,
electric
and
other
sources
of
you,
know
transportation
and
really
things
that
impact
our
day-to-day
quality
of
life.
A
A
A
A
So
I
do
like
to
emphasize
the
opportunity
here
is
really
not
just
in
mitigating
our
greenhouse
gas
emissions
and
adapting
to
future
changes,
but
also
there's
huge
opportunity
to
create
an
extremely
beautiful
world
through
some
of
these
actions.
Some
of
these
things
that
we
call
co-benefits
so
just
a
few
examples
here
on
the
slide
things
that
are
available
to
us
today.
A
A
So
these
are
really
when
we
talk
about
measures
later
on
today
and
specific
actions
that
we're
considering
I
want,
I
want
everybody
to
keep
these
things
in
mind.
Is
that
the
specific
actions
that
we're
looking
at
and
we're
going
to
be
asking
for
your
feedback
and
prioritization
on
is
things
that
also
not
only
mitigate
greenhouse
gas
emissions,
but
also
create
these
benefits
for
our
everyday
lifestyle.
A
A
A
A
But
what
what
there
is
is
a
fair
amount
of
certainty
on
the
magnitude
of
where
emissions
are
coming
from,
and
so
I
encourage
people
to
look
at
these
percentages
and
happy
to
discuss
with
you
the
details
if
you'd
like,
but
really
I've
highlighted
the
top
three
categories
of
our
emissions
today
here
in
the
city
of
cupertino,
that
is,
energy.
That's
consumed
from
natural
gas,
which
is
you
know
everything
from
your
gas
cooking
appliance
to
heating
your
home
with
a
gas
furnace
and
even
gas.
A
A
So
we
really
again
can
start
to
see
the
real
physical,
real-life
impacts
of
transportation
and
the
pollutants
that
that
our
current
systems
cause
and
off-road
sources,
and
thus
those
things
include
things
like
like
heavy
construction
activity.
So
as
of
2018,
those
are
our
our
top
three
emissions
categories
and
indicate
some
of
the
attention
that
we're
we're
placing
on
these
spaces
when
it
comes
to
mitigating
emissions.
A
So
what
have
we
done
so
far?
So
cupertino
was
pretty
early
actor
in
climate
action
space
here
in
the
state
of
california.
Our
first
climate
action
plan
was
adopted
in
2014
2015
time
span
and
that's
a
an
amazing
document.
Very
big
document
had
about
200
plus
measures
for
us
to
consider
those
measures
were
everything
from
retrofit
city
facilities
with
led
light
bulbs
to
you
know
forming
regional
bodies
to
address
some
of
these
big
systemic
issues
that
we
face.
A
I'm
happy
to
report
that
we
have
reduced
our
greenhouse
gas
emissions
by
about
24
since
our
baseline
year,
which
is
2010.
That's
an
amazing
accomplishment,
so
you
know
round
of
applause
to
everybody
in
the
city
of
cupertino.
That's
that's
a
really
big
deal.
That
means
we
hit
the
targets
that
we
set
for
ourselves
back
in
2014.
A
We
have
initiated
or
completed
most
of
the
measures
that
were
tagged
as
near-term
measures
in
our
first
climate
action
plan
and
we'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
how
we
organize
measures,
but
we
do
try
to
think
long
term
midterm
short
term
with
short
term
here
being
something
within
like
one
to
five
years.
So
we've
made
good
progress
on
those
near-term
measures
in
the
climate
action
plan.
A
The
single
largest
impact
that
we've
had
here
is
the
creation
of
silicon
valley,
clean
energy
authority,
you'll,
see
on
the
next
slide
that
that
has
had
made
the
biggest
difference
for
us
when
it
comes
to
our
emissions
is
purchasing
clean
electricity,
and
this
is
a
mega
trend.
That's
going
on
throughout
the
united
states
and
throughout
the
world.
The
electricity
sector
as
a
whole
is
being
driven
with
again
by
economics
and
policy
to
really
source
electricity
from
cleaner
sources,
like
geothermal,
hydroelectric,
wind
utility
scale,
solar
utility
scale
batteries,
and
things
like
that.
A
Not
only
is
that
good
for
feeling
good,
but
it
that
has
helped
us
really
achieve
a
few
important
things
like
receiving
grants
that
really
helps
us
to
leverage
grant
funding
and
that
reputation
that
we've
built
to
get
more
money,
more
funding,
more
attention
to
them.
You
know
put
back
into
programs,
I'm
estimating
about.
In
the
last
two
years,
we've
either
gone
out
for
or
received
about
two
million
dollars
in
grant
funding
to
support
climate
action
projects
here
in
the
city
of
cupertino.
A
A
So
we're
really
here
to
understand
your
priorities
for
those
actions
and
make
sure
that
we
can
come
back
to
the
city
council
with
something
that's
been
vetted
and
had
you
know
a
strong
amount
of
input
from
you
next
slide.
Please
just
real
quickly
on
goals
and
targets,
just
like
with
greenhouse
gas
inventories
goals
and
targets
are
imperfect,
but
an
extremely
important
tool
for
us
to
use
in
climate
action
planning.
A
What
you're
seeing
here
is
our
historic
emissions
path,
which
is
that
blue
line
on
the
left,
you
can
see
that
we
made
great
strides
there
over
time
and
where
we
are
today
is
where
we're
at
this
decision
point.
Our
current
target
path
is
is
illustrated
there
in
the
gray
line,
and
we
need
to
think
about
this
in
terms
of
both
long-term
targets.
Looking
out
towards
2040
2050
towards
the
mid-century
and
also
midterm
targets,
we
want
to
have
a
midterm
target
that
helps
us
along
the
path.
A
What
you
see
here
is
an
illustration
of
something
that
we
went
to
the
city
council
with
in
december
of
this
year.
We
really
just
took
a
look
at
what
the
state
targets
are
looking
like.
That's
illustrated
there
with
the
little
red
dot
where
it
says,
2045
state
target,
that's
on
the
zero,
so
that
means
by
2045
the
state
of
california
is
looking
to
have
a
zero
carbon
or
a
net
zero
carbon
economy.
We'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
that
later.
A
A
A
But
what
we,
what
we
have
here
is
really
something
that's
a
little
more
aggressive
than
what
the
state
of
california
is
asking
for,
and
you
know
staff
is
going
to
take
this
back
and
and
crunch
the
numbers
and,
after
we've
gotten
your
input
on
these
targets.
We're
then
going
to
be
going
back
and
creating
this
roadmap
to
to
see
what
it
actually
is
going
to
take
to
hit
these
targets.
A
And
one
last
slide
here
just
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
what
we've
set
up
so
far.
So
again,
in
december
of
this
year,
we
went
to
the
city
council
and
we
were
able
to
get
their
their
guidance
and
feedback
just
for
the
process
that
we're
going
forward
with
here
in
the
next
few
months.
So
these
are
just
the
four
points
that
that
we
emphasized
in
terms
of
our
vision
for
this
process.
A
We
want
to
emphasize
equity
and
the
the
character
of
cupertino,
really
celebrating
the
diversity
of
our
city.
We
want
to
emphasize
innovation.
We
want
to
look
for
things
that
again
position
us
as
a
leader
in
the
space
and
are
are
exciting
and
also
you
know,
innovative
and
creating
benefits
for
the
city.
We
want
to
emphasize
urgency
and
flexibility
and
2018
the
mayor
conducted
a
a
climate
emergency
declaration
which
really
put
us
on
a
footing
here
to
say
this
is
serious.
A
We
need
to
take
action
right
away
and
make
it
bold
action.
We
also
emphasize
flexibility,
there's
a
lot
changing
in
this
space.
Almost
every
day
you
hear
about
a
new
invention
or
a
new
study
about
climate
change,
and
we
want
to
be
responsive
to
that,
so
we're
really
trying
to
set
up
the
next
climate
action
plan
in
a
way
that
almost
on
a
yearly
basis,
we
can
take
a
look
at
these
a
list
of
measures.
You
can
see.
A
What's
changed
in
the
technology
space,
we
can
see
what's
changed
in
society
and
really
be
flexible
and
adapt
our
plan
as
the
situation
demands,
and
we
also
want
to
look
into
resilience
and
adaptation.
We
want
to
prepare
our
city,
prepare
our
community
and
our
families
for
what
what
may
come
down
the
road
as
the
greenhouse
gas
emissions
continue
to
occur,
we'll
we'll
probably
see
an
increase
in
some
of
those
uncertainties
and
hazards
that
I
mentioned
at
the
beginning
of
the
presentation.
B
B
B
B
B
B
Ultimately,
the
plan
will
be
adopted
by
council,
but
it's
important
to
note
that
it's
not
going
to
exist
in
the
silo.
It's
going
to
be
closely
linked
to
many
other
city
planning
documents
like
the
general
plan,
capital
improvement
projects,
parks
and
recreation
plan,
for
example,
in
addition
to
reducing
greenhouse
gas
emissions.
It's
also
important
to
the
city
that
this
climate
action
plan
encompasses.
The
entire
community
reflects
community
values,
is
inclusive,
inclusive
and
equitable
and
provides
other
benefits
like
public
health
and
the
economy.
B
B
Climate
adaptation
refers
to
how
we
build
and
redevelop
the
city
to
prepare
for
and
build
resilience
to
climate
change
impacts.
So
those
impacts
that
are
already
going
to
happen
are
already
happening
in
some
cases,
making
sure
that
the
city
can
be
prepared
for
those
and
continue
to
prosper
in
the
face
of
those
impacts.
B
B
So
you
might
ask
yourself:
why
is
this
plan
being
updated
now?
So
there
are
a
few
reasons.
So,
first,
this
new
climate
action
plan
will
align
with
updated
state
and
regional
targets.
As
you
might
imagine,
the
world
has
changed
dramatically
since
2014
the
state
has
given
direction
toward
carbon
neutrality
and
even
moving
away
from
gasoline
vehicles.
B
Secondly,
it's
important
that
the
climate
action
plan
reflects
the
latest
climate
science,
so,
for
example,
as
andre
alluded
to
recent
science
indicates
that
we
need
to
reduce
emissions
to
an
extent
that
will
curb
global
warming
below
1.5
degrees
celsius
on
average
to
avoid
the
most
catastrophic
climate
impacts.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
this
climate
action
plan
reflects
what
we
understand
there
in
the
latest
science.
B
B
So,
for
example,
it
means
expanding
staff,
knowledge
about
vulnerable
communities
within
our
city
limits,
it
means
taking
every
effort
to
include
traditionally
underrepresented
voices
and
those
who
might
be
displaced
by
climate
hazards
in
the
planning
and
selection
of
strategies.
In
the
plan
it
means
establishing
strong
relationships
with
community
businesses,
student
organizations,
faith
groups
and
advocates,
and
it
means
creating
a
plan
that
reflects
the
multi-racial
character
of
our
community
and
sets
us
on
a
path
towards
a
more
welcoming
and
inclusive
city.
B
Another
benefit
that
we
want
to
mention
of
this
plan
update
is
that
it
can
have
ripple
effects
into
other
city
strategies.
So,
for
example,
as
I
mentioned,
the
city
is
looking
to
update
its
safety
element
of
the
general
plan
and
that
will
include
some
of
the
findings
from
the
climate
vulnerability
assessment.
B
D
Hi,
I'm
gilly
corral
climate
and
climate
and
utilities
analyst
for
the
city
of
cupertino,
and
we
do
have
a
couple
of
questions
that
have
come
through
that
have
been
upvoted
see.
We
have
one,
that's
it's
not
clear.
If
you're
asking
for
all
citizens
to
work
towards
drawing
down
our
emissions
or
only
the
city,
staff
and
services,
please
clarify.
A
That's
a
really
important
question:
you
know
that
it
gets
to
something
that
we
get
asked
all
the
time
which
is
well.
What
can
I
do
personally
around
climate
action?
What's
what's
really?
The
case
is
that
it's
going
to
take
both.
Certainly
us
as
city
staff
and
the
elected
leaders
can't
do
this
all
on
our
own.
What
we
have
to
do
is
we
really
have
to
act
together
in
concert.
A
So
those
are
some
very
specific
things
the
city
is
going
to
be
doing,
but
it
really
is
a
group
effort.
It
takes
the
whole
village
to
address
these
types
of
issues,
and
so
an
example
of
some
of
those
programs
that
that
we
support,
rather
than
carry
on
just
us
as
the
city,
would
be
like
the
cupertino
climate
challenge.
It's
a
website.
We
set
up
that
really
just
encourages
people
to
create
their
own
personal
climate
action
plan.
A
Great
question:
yes,
so
what
we
have
is
it
was
said
on
the
slide.
These
are
draft
goals.
A
few
things
that
we're
doing
today
is
really
getting
a
sense
for
for
what
your
level
of
appetite
is
as
a
community
to
be
more
or
less
aggressive.
The
only
thing
that
I
would
keep
in
mind
is
that
setting
aggressive
targets
means
that
we're
gonna
have
more
aggressive
measures
and
things
that
we'll
have
to
to
conduct
as
a
as
a
community.
A
So
we
get
to
make
that
decision
together
as
to
where,
where
our
goals
should
be.
But
you
know,
keep
that
in
mind.
Is
that
if
we
want
to
be
more
ambitious
in
our
goals,
we'll
have
to
think
bigger
and
we'll
have
to
consider
things
like
funding
availability,
what's
practical
to
to
do?
What's
going
to
also
create
those
co
benefits,
and
not
we
want
to,
we
want
to
not
just
avoid
disruption
in
you
know
things
like
economic
activity.
We
want
to
create
value
in
the
actions
that
we're
taking.
A
A
At
the
same
time,
the
state
is
considering
even
more
ambitious
targets,
so
this
is
really
an
ongoing
conversation
where
there's
very
recent
news
out
of
the
governor's
office
that
they're
considering
a
2035
date
for
carbon
neutrality,
or
you
know
so
so
those
are
really
things
that
we're
trying
to
keep
track
of
as
we
create
this
plan.
But
yes,
really
we're
here
to
collect
your
feedback.
A
If
you
want
us
to
be
more
more
aggressive
in
that
space,
we'll
take
that-
and
you
know,
put
it
together
in
a
proposed
roadmap,
and
this
will
be
the
subject
of
probably
our
second
and
third
public
workshops.
When
we
have
more
detail
about
what
that
roadmap
looks
like.
So
you
can
really
start
to
see
what
that
might
mean
in
your
day-to-day
life.
D
C
A
That's
a
great
comment:
yes,
yes,
and
no!
Yes,
because
we
really
have
achieved
a
lot
of
the
low-hanging
fruit.
You
would
call
it
when
it
comes
to
reducing
carbon
emissions.
So
we
do.
We
do
have
that
in
mind
that
the
next
steps
are
going
to
become
more
and
more
difficult
as
we
move
along
and
get
closer
towards
this
net
zero
or
this
net
zero
emissions
time
span
so
and
there's
also
a
lot
of
uncertainties
about
what
may
come
up
in
terms
of
strategies
available
to
us.
A
If
that
feels
like
the
right
space
to
be
at
and
then
we'll
have
a
much
more
informed
conversation
in
our
next
couple
workshops,
as
we
actually
see
what
is
it
really
going
to
take
to
get
there?
We'll
have
a
few
examples
in
our
next
section
of
specific
climate
actions
and
strategies
that
you'll
have
the
opportunity
to
rank
according
to
your
preferences,
and
you
know
that's
going
to
be
really
valuable
feedback
for
us
as
we
go
and,
and
you
know,
set
the
set
the
next
greenhouse
gas
target.
B
All
right
thanks
so
much
for
everyone's
question
for
the
great
discussion
it
looks
like
we
are
able
to
answer
quite
a
few
questions
already
through
typing
for
all
the
questions
that
are
left
for
we'll
make
sure
that
we
have
responses
for
you
and
can
follow
up
with
those.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
your
engagement
and
questions.
B
Do
you
want
to
go
ahead
and
get
the
presentation
going?
Maddie
great,
so
now
we're
going
to
pivot
a
little
bit
to
talk
about
high
level
vision
priorities
and
also
dig
into
some
of
these
sectors
and
start
to
get
your
feedback
and
thoughts
on
what
are
some
initial
actions
that
you
think
will
be
important
for
the
the
city
to
consider
in
this
climate
action
plan
update
next
slide
so
quickly.
We
were
able
to
to
put
the
responses
we
heard
from
you
in
this
vision
statement
into
a
word
cloud.
B
B
Great
great
input,
all
right
so
moving
on
to
so
these
sectors,
so
we're
going
to
go
sector
by
sector
and
it'll
be
a
little
bit
of
a
flash
round
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
what's
in
each
sector.
What
what
does
it
touch
on?
What
are
the
goals
and
then
hear
quickly
from
you?
What
are
some
of
the
high
level
strategies
and
actions
and
considerations
that
will
be
important
for
us
to
think
about
and
consider
as
we're
developing
this
plan
so
moving
into
the
first
one.
B
A
A
You
know
some
ideas
around
this
space,
but
this
the
the
items
presented
to
you
in
the
poll
are
by
no
means
the
only
actions
that
we're
considering
so
there
there
again
is
this
space
you
can
mark
other
or
put
in
the
chat
related
to
the
sector.
What
you
think
about
this
specific
space,
so
buildings
and
energy
consumption,
as
you
saw
in
the
greenhouse
gas
inventory
energy
used
with
electricity
in
our
buildings,
is
pretty
clean.
A
Energy
used
from
fossil
fuels
like
natural
gas
is,
you
know,
a
big,
a
big
component
of
what
we're
looking
at
for
the
remainder
of
our
emissions
reduction.
So
really,
the
goal
here
is
to
reduce
our
reliance
on
fossil
fuels
and
reduce
the
carbon
associated
with
building
materials
as
well
looking
at
the
whole
life
cycle
of
things
in
our
buildings.
A
A
couple
examples
shown
here
would
be
like
transitioning
away
to
modern
induction.
Electric
cooking,
like
the
city,
has
done
with
our
all-electric
reach
code
for
new
developments,
we're
really
requiring
all
electric
appliances
inside
the
building.
That's
a
really
important
step
to
you
know:
stop
the
bleeding,
as
they
say
to
you,
know,
stop
using
new
natural
gas
sources.
You
know,
what's
the
next
thing
beyond
that
and
then
another
example.
A
Here
we
have
a
rendering
from
one
of
the
big
projects
going
on
across
the
way
in
san
jose,
which
is
proposed
to
be
built
out
of
mass
timber.
You
know
so
that's
an
example
of
a
low
carbon
building
material
that
we
should.
Maybe
we
should
be
considering
in
our
next
climate
actions.
So
those
are
just
two
examples:
let's
transition
to
our
poll
and
talk
more
about
it.
B
Great,
so
you
should
see
a
poll
pop
up
here
in
a
moment
and
what
we
want
to
hear
from
you
is:
what's
your
highest
priority
for
the
city
to
accomplish
in
this
sector
of
buildings
and
energy
consumption,
and
as
andre
mentioned,
these
are
by
no
means
comprehensive
and
feel
free
to
choose
other.
If
you
have
another
big
idea
and
then
we'll
have
an
opportunity
in
the
chat
to
provide
a
little
more
information.
B
B
B
A
I'll
start
answering
a
couple
of
these
andrea
while
we're
getting
responses
in
so
let
me
just
pick
one
and
then
I
I
do
want
to
encourage
people
to
keep
putting
in
comments
and
questions.
We
won't
get
a
chance
to
get
to
all
of
them
live
here,
but
we
will
be
compiling
these
all
and
and
putting
out
documentation
on
our
website
as
we
go
through
these
these
public
workshops.
A
So
if
I
don't
get
to
your
question,
it's
it's
it's
going
to
be
compiled
and
answered
at
a
later
date,
but
the
feedback
is
all
extremely
valuable
to
us,
even
if
I'm
not
able
to
speak
to
it
at
this
time.
So
I'll
just
talk
talk
quickly
about
one
that
that
I
heard
which
was,
I
would
like
the
city
to
eliminate
natural
gas
in
city
buildings.
A
A
Resources
for
residential
appliance
replacements,
so
this
is
a
really
important
one
as
well
again.
The
city
can't
mandate
all
these
actions
to
be
happening
around
the
community,
but
we
can
encourage
things
and
we
can
promote
activities
and
we
can
incentivize
things
with
dollars
as
well
or
partner
up
with
regional
partners
who
are
offering
incentives.
A
So
I
think
components
of
incentive
programs
is
something
that
I'd
really
like
to
get
feedback
on.
You
know,
specifically,
if
there's
something
that
you
as
a
homeowner
or
maybe
even
more
importantly,
as
a
renter
or
or
a
landlord.
You
know
those
are
kind
of
the
hard
to
reach
sectors
in
our
next
steps
along
this
journey
that
have
proven
to
be
a
lot
more
tricky
to
make
an
impact
on
rental
properties
or
small
bit
or
small
businesses
really
helping
them
to
generate
value
through
climate
actions.
A
I'd
really
love
to
hear
your
feedback
in
the
chat
or
or
email
us
your
ideas
around
what
kind
of
incentives
or
technical
assistance
would
you
need
as
a
homeowner,
a
renter,
a
small
business
owner,
to
actually
make
those
physical
improvements?
We
understand
there's
a
lot
of
barriers
to
that
space.
It's
hard
to
get
work
done
here
in
the
bay
area.
Everything
is
really
expensive.
A
A
So
this
this
space
is
about
renewable
energy.
We
talked
a
lot
about
now:
we're
purchasing
clean
power
for
our
electricity
sector.
We
really
like
to
consider
not
only
things
like
solar,
but
also
what
about
natural
gas?
Are
there
ways
that
we
can
purchase
clean,
cleaner,
natural
gas,
green
hydrogen?
Things
like
this
that
are
maybe
not
available
today,
but
may
be
available
in
the
future.
A
So
I
think
we
need
to
make
sure
that
as
well,
that
renewable
energy
that
we're
procuring
is
extremely
reliable
and
that's
one
of
the
one
of
the
hazards
that
we
talked
about
earlier
is
that
how
do
we
encourage
reliable
energy
supply?
That's
available
in
an
emergency
that's
available
when
the
grid
goes
out,
so
we're
considering
things
like
micro
grids,
which
is
something
that
you
may
have
seen
a
movement
on
recently,
which
is
sort
of
like
a
solar
and
battery
system.
A
That's
powering
your
your
school
campus
and
able
to
continue
powering
that
campus
throughout
a
power
outage
or
some
natural
disaster.
So
those
are
things
that
we
think
offer
a
huge
amount
of
opportunity,
but
throw
your
ideas
in
the
chat
around
renewable
energy,
and
you
know
what
what
what
it's
going
to
take
to
switch
over-
and
we
have
a
few
specific
examples
here
for
you
in
the
poll.
B
A
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna,
take
a
look
here
through
the
chat
in
the
q.
A
and
pick
out.
One
or
two
things
here
to
to
answer
live
one
is
to
tie
energy
efficiency
to
business
licenses
with
measurable
steps
to
reduce
carbon
there's
a
nexus
with
operation
of
the
business
and
carbon
output.
That's
a
really
interesting
suggestion.
I
haven't
really
thought
about
that
type
of
thing.
A
I
will
mention
that
the
city
does
operate
a
green
business
program
that
lays
sort
of
the
foundations
for
that
type
of
thing,
where
we're
promoting
and
providing
technical
assistance
for
small
businesses
that
want
to
become
green
businesses
and
get
a
stamp
on
their
door
and
we're
also
trying
to
help
those
businesses
to
attract
more
customers.
So
that's
a
really
interesting
thought
to
perhaps
expand
upon
our
green
business
program.
I'm
also
seeing
a
comment
here
about
training
for
contractors
about
how
to
electrify
buildings
and
homes
rather
than
waiting
until
your
water
heater
fails.
A
A
A
B
A
Transportation,
you
saw
it
in
our
inventory
is
our
second
largest
category
of
emissions
and
actions
that
we're
considering
here.
Actually,
you
can
probably
go
ahead
and
launch
the
poll,
while
I'm
talking
and
some
of
the
actions
we're
talking
about
here
with
transportation
are
the
things
that
you
would
imagine.
How
do
we
encourage
more
people
to
get
out
of
cars
and
onto
bikes
or
onto
the
sidewalks
to
walk?
A
How
do
we
get
more
bus
service,
more
things
like
via
shuttle
to
really
help
address
mobility
in
in
the
city,
so
some
of
the
strategies
that
we
might
consider,
as
you
see
on
the
poll
there,
how
do
we
improve
reliability
of
you
know
public
transit
or
alternatives
to
public
transit?
How
do
we
get
around
the
region?
We're
really
trying
to
figure
out?
How
do
we
get
around
to
the
major
job
centers
to
the
beach
to
all
the
places
we
want
to
go?
A
A
Use
and
seeing
a
comment
here
around
we
want.
We
want
to
get
more
solar
in
the
parking
lots
and
tie
those
in
with
electric
vehicle
charging
stations.
That's
that's
a
pretty
major
one.
Electric
vehicles
hybrid
vehicles
offer
a
major
opportunity
to
reduce
the
emissions
associated
so
as
you're
thinking
about
about
your
priorities
in
this
space
think
about
what
would
offer
the
most.
A
You
know
benefits
to
you
personally
in
terms
of
convenience.
Those
are
the
things
that
tend
to
get
adopted
quicker
and
also
what
are
things
that
are
gonna.
You
know
reduce
traffic.
Those
are
those
are
that's
another
major
co-benefit
that
we've
all
seen
you
know.
Hopefully,
the
traffic
reduction
around
the
area
from
people
working
from
home,
that's
actually
going
to
create
a
really
major
impact
in
our
in
our
greenhouse
gas
emissions
is
work
from
home.
A
A
B
A
A
So
this
is
kind
of
a
bit
of
a
newer
concept
for
us
as
practitioners,
but
it
really
is
things
like
growing,
more
tree
canopies,
helping
helping
the
soil
to
a
sequester,
more
carbon
and
managing
our
open
spaces
in
a
way
that
is
actually
helpful
to
to
keep
carbon
in
the
ground
so
yeah.
I
got
a
poll
here
with
a
few
a
few
priority
areas
that
we'd,
like
your
feedback
on
in
this
space.
B
A
Yes,
we
do
want
to
do
all
of
the
above,
we're
really
hoping
to
get
your.
You
know
what
do
we
do
first
and
then
we're
and
then
we're
going
to
move
forward
with
all
of
these
we're
really
thrilled
again
with
all
the
participation
we're
getting
here,
and
if
we
don't
get
a
chance
to
address
your
comment,
we
will
in
on
the
website.
B
A
As
as
we
get
more
information
about
this
space
to
really
show
that,
on
our
next
version
of
the
greenhouse
gas
emissions
inventory
to
really
show
what
what
what
do?
We
think
the
impact
is
from
our
tree
canopy
but
yes,
parks
the
open
spaces
within
our
sphere
of
influence.
Those
are
are
definitely
things
that
will
we'll
be
trying
to
show
the
impact
of
that
and
that'll
go
into
that.
That
target
path
that
you
see
in
the
climate
action
plan.
B
A
Yes,
and
in
the
solid
waste
specter
we
we
know
that
just
creating
the
materials
that
we
use,
that
emits
greenhouse
gas
emissions
all
along
its
supply
chain,
and
so
what
we're
looking
for
here.
It's
actually
not
really
reflected
the
whole
supply
chain.
When
you,
when
you
look
at
our
greenhouse
gas
emissions,
it's
a
different
accounting
method
that
will
that
we
that
we
have
done
that's
known
as
a
consumption
based
inventory,
so
a
little
bit
different
way
that
we
show
the
numbers
with
solid
waste.
A
But
this
is
incredibly
important
part
of
our
plan,
we're
really
hoping
to
have
a
zero
waste
community
by
the
year
2035.
That's
our
draft
goal
there,
which
is
defined
as
I
believe
that
means
that
90
percent
of
the
materials
that
we
use
have
been
diverted
away
from
the
landfill
or
recycled
or
reused
in
some
way.
So
that's
that's
one
of
our
draft
goals
that
we're
really
excited
about
moving
forward
on.
But
what
are
your
priorities
here?
Around
around
solid
waste
we've
heard
a
lot
about
plastic
packaging.
A
Oh
yeah,
that's
a
that's
a
really
important
one.
When
you
look
at
the
emissions
again,
looking
at
the
whole
supply
chain,
plant-based
diets
are
are
reliably
one
of
the
best
things
you
can
do
to
reduce
your
personal
carbon
footprint.
That's
an
area
that
we'll
have
to
take
back
and
consider.
You
know
what
how
much
control
the
city
has
over
what
people
eat?
There's,
probably
things
we
could.
We
could
look
into
like
at
the
very
least
for
our
own
events.
A
We
do
have
a
major
effort
going
on
called
sb
1383,
which
is
a
state
law
that
will
require
us
to
collect
organics
from
just
about
everywhere.
We
can
and
that
that
law
does
require
us
to
set
up
edible
food
collection
from
restaurants
and
grocery
stores
and
distribution
to
those
in
need,
and
that
law
also
requires
us
to
to
have
a
much
cleaner
waste
stream.
So
we
can
get
all
of
the
organic
material
out
of
the
landfill
and
into
a
compost
facility.
B
A
B
A
A
I
do
see
that
there's
a
something
I
do
want
to
call
out.
Attendee
was
is
talking
about
compostable
and
he
puts
compostable
in
quotes
so
I'll.
Take
this
opportunity
to
address
this,
because
it's
really
important
for
the
solid
waste
question.
Looking
back
as
the
compostable
items
do
present
kind
of
an
issue
for
us
and
our
our
waste
haulers
in
that
they
aren't
exactly
compostable
the
products
that
are
available
out
there
in
the
marketplace.
So
I
believe
a
member
of
our
staff
has
answered
that
question.
A
But
our
plan
is
to
create
specific
goals
around
adaptation,
probably
something
around
the
impact
of
hazards
and
reducing
that
over
time
or
perhaps
a
metric.
That
looks
like
how
many
people
are
attending
personal
resiliency.
Trainings
is
another
metric
that
we
might
consider,
for
example,
cert
trainings
out
there,
which
is
safety,
training,
block
leaders,
kind
of
engagement
programs.
Those
are
things
that
all
fall
into
the
space
of
a
resilient
cupertino
that
are
going
to
become
a
very
important
part
of
our
plan.
B
So
just
with
some
concluding
remarks
here
to
wrap
up,
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
we
it's
important
to
the
city
that
we
know
who
we're
hearing
from
and
who
we're
talking
to
through
this
process.
So
if
you
have
a
moment,
we
just
have
a
few
quick
demographic
questions.
If
you
wouldn't
mind
and
then
we'll
we'll
wrap
up
talking
about
some
next
steps.
B
B
B
B
All
right
I'll
go
ahead
and
wrap
up
this
poll.
Thank
you
so
much
for
providing
that
information
that
just
make
sure
we're
reaching
out
to,
as
as
diverse
and
as
as
much
portion
of
the
community
that
we
can
through
this
process,
all
right.
Well,
I'm
going
to
kind
of
over
back
to
andre
to
just
talk
about
some
ways
that
you
can
continue
to
be
involved
in
this
process.
A
Hey
thanks,
andrea
for
all
your
support
through
this
process
and
thanks
to
the
team
in
the
behind
the
scenes,
we
have
like
five
people
that,
in
the
background
trying
to
answer
questions
as
furiously
as
we
can
in
the
chat
and
also
taking
good
notes
that
we
will
compile
into
a
summer
report.
So
how
can
we
stay
involved?
We're
really
again
hoping
for
you
to
activate
your
networks.
This
is
a
really
great
turnout
we
have
about.
A
A
Our
next
workshop
is
going
to
focus
a
little
more
on
some
details
around
specific
actions
that
we're
proposing,
as
well
as
a
more
detailed
conversation
around
what
that
target
is
going
to
look
like
and
probably
a
lot
more
a
lot
more
discussion
around
so
priorities
and
and
and
getting
your
feedback
on
a
draft
plan
by
the
third
by
the
third
workshop.
So
we've
created
a
few
things
on
the
website.
We
really
encourage
people
to
take
the
survey.
That's
on
our
website
at
cupertino.org
climate
action.
A
If
you
check
that
out,
there's
some
content
that
we've
created
there,
that
you
can
just
go,
go
ahead
and
post
on
your
own
social
media
channels
and
that
we
found
that
that
kind
of
network
effect
really
helps
us
to
get
the
word
out.
So
really
we're
in
that
raising
awareness,
phase
right
now
and
educating
people
that
this
is
a
process
that
we're
going
through
and
then
we're
going
to
move
right
into
some
more
detailed
work
on
what
kind
of
measures
what
kind
of
actions
we're
looking
at.
A
So
that
survey
your
comments
here
in
today's
workshop.
Those
are
all
really
great
ways
to
interact
with
us.
The
website-
I
don't
know
if
we
have
an
opportunity
to
maybe
give
a
give
a
preview
of
what
the
website
great.
So
this
is
really
exciting.
This
is
the
city
of
cupertino's
brand
new
engagement
platform
and
we've
been
lucky
enough
to
be
the
the
guinea
pig
says.
It
were
here
with
this
project
to
test
it
out
and
we
think
it's
really
exciting,
because
it's
not
just
a
static
website.
A
A
So
you
can
share
the
survey
with
as
many
people
as
you
can
there's
a
news
section
kind
of
like
your
facebook
news
feed
where
you'll
see
all
the
current
updates
coming
in
as
we
go
through
it
and
some
background
information
that
you
can
follow
along
there's
a
repository
of
documents.
You
can
see
that
really
is
all
the
you
know
for
transparency,
we're
really
trying
to
post
as
much
information
as
we
can
on
the
technical
process.
A
That's
going
on
behind
the
scenes,
so
that
information
is
all
posted
up
there
for
you
to
see
and
there'll
be
a
place
there
as
well
for
you
to
leave
comments
and
I
believe,
we're
going
to
activate
a
feature
where
you
can
do
things
like
put
a
sticky
note
on
the
draft
document,
once
we
actually
have
a
draft
climate
action
plan
document
you'll
have
the
ability
to
flip
through
that
live
on
the
website.
Put
a
sticky
note
on
it
make
comments
on
specific
things
that
you
like
or
don't
like.
A
B
A
Thanks
so
much
everybody
and
any
other
questions
or
comments,
do
you
email
us,
I'm
really
curious
to
know
as
well?
If
we
had
an
in-person
workshop,
what
would
you
like
to
see
in
that
in-person
workshop?
This
will
all
depend
on
the
health
situation,
of
course,
but
I'd
really
love
to
see
all
of
you
in
person
so
do
do.
Give
us
your
suggestions
and
have
a
great
evening.
