GHG Emissions Reduction Targets <br /> <br />Pleasanton Climate Action Plan Update 57 <br />5.2 Meeting the GHG Emissions Targets <br />The GHG emissions targets identified above will be achieved through implementation of local GHG <br />emissions reduction measures that are to be identified within the Pleasanton CAP Update. Local <br />measures will be identified through a comprehensive assessment of existing local and regional policies, <br />programs, and actions and by assessing gaps and identifying additional opportunities. Additional <br />measures will be developed from best practices worldwide and of other similar and neighboring <br />jurisdictions, as well as those recommended by organizations and agencies, such as the California Air <br />Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA), Attorney General’s office, and Air Resources Board. <br />Measures will be vetted by City staff and the community and will be quantified to identify their overall <br />contribution to meeting the Pleasanton GHG reduction targets. Although measures in the Pleasanton <br />CAP Update will continue to achieve emissions reductions after 2030 and establish a trajectory for <br />reaching longer-term goals, another phase of climate action planning and the realization of additional <br />technological advances and State measures will be needed to meet the longer-term targets. This next <br />phase will build on CAP Update measures, informed by monitoring and adaptive management, and <br />take advantage of new technologies and climate protection science that will be available in the future.
