<p>The City of Mountain View has prepared a greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction plan for incorporation into its General Plan Update. The City received a grant funding from Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) to develop a plan to measure, monitor, and mitigate the effects of climate change. The project includes development of a series of goals, policies, and actions to address various GHG management issues ranging from emissions to waste disposal to climate-supportive land uses. Preparation of the plan focuses on prioritizing GHG reduction measures, analyzing economic costs and benefits, and identifying how each proposed measure contributes toward meeting GHG reduction targets established for the City. It involves public outreach and coordination with City&rsquo;s General Plan team and advisory committees to ensure consistency with new General Plan.</p>
