E. Toward Net Zero: 4 Strategies and 44 Actions for 2025 - 2030
This Climate Action Plan has 4 Strategies:
- Achieve County-wide Net Zero 2050 alignment
- Implement net zero land use principles
- Reduce emissions
- Produce cleaner energy
Tier 1. These 44 Actions will help Washoe County implement these Strategies. We selected Tier 1 actions based on the values described on the previous page, including these specific criteria: potential size of GHG emissions reduction; equity as a primary outcome; community enthusiasm; existing alignment with partners; the County’s authority to act; and available resources and funding.
Tier 2. These Actions can also help reduce emissions, but they may not meet many of the criteria listed in Tier 1. These Actions may be changed to Tier 1 if one of the criteria above changes. For example, we may move something from Tier 2 to Tier 1 if a new funding source emerges.
The numbers next to each Action in the Strategy sections do not indicate ranking. They are simply reference numbers to track Actions.
