Plan

Climate Resilient San Diego

Climate Resilient SD is a comprehensive climate adaptation and resilience plan that addresses the four primary climate change-related hazards for the City: extreme heat, extreme rainfall or drought, wildfires and sea level rise. The level of impact these climate change hazards will have on the City’s people, assets and resources was assessed through a detailed citywide Climate Change Hazard Vulnerability Assessment (Appendix B). This assessment considered exposure to the hazard, sensitivity to the hazard and to what extent the asset or resource could adapt to the hazard. By identifying its more vulnerable communities, assets and resources, the City can implement adaptation strategies where they are most needed and use its resources most effectively. Adaptation strategies can lessen vulnerability by reducing exposure or sensitivity to climate change hazards, or by increasing their adaptive capacity, or ability to respond to the climate change hazard.
