Climate Action & Adaptation Plan
Pico Rivera is developing its first Climate Action & Adaptation Plan (CAAP) and we need your input! Since Summer 2023, we’ve been working with the community to create this plan, which will guide us towards a resilient and sustainable future. Our goals include achieving net-zero emissions and carbon neutrality by 2045, while also addressing climate-related vulnerabilities specific to Pico Rivera.
We’re seeking your feedback on the draft plan, which will be finalized and presented to the City Council in January 2025. Your insights will help ensure the plan aligns with our community’s priorities.
Please review the draft and provide your comments by October 11th, 2024, at 11:59 pm. You can leave comments directly in the document or take the “Guided Tour” to explore key sections.

What is it?
Our City is creating a Climate Action & Adaptation Plan (CAAP) to better prepare our community from the effects of climate change. We want YOUR input to use the best strategies, actions, and local priorities that will help us cut pollution/contamination and protect Pico Rivera from climate challenges. Your experiences and ideas are needed—let’s shape a greener, more resilient future together!
Why now?
Our community is feeling the heat, struggling with dry spells, and the air quality is not the best.
Creating a CAAP will help us plan for a healthier and safer tomorrow.
