Abstract
Strategic local plans focusing on the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and increasing a community’s resilience in the face of unavoidable climate impacts are being pursued nationwide. The development of these climate action planning strategies, which are either included in a stand-alone plan or incorporated into comprehensive land use plans or sustainability plans, is likely to continue into the foreseeable future. Development of these plans represents a unique opportunity for communities not only to contribute to solving a global problem but to position themselves to thrive well into the future. Climate action planning should be seen as a chance for communities to control their own destiny in the face of shifting conditions, and to act as leaders in the formation of effective, innovative climate policy.
