Half of the 50 Largest Cities in the U.S. by Population have Adopted Local Climate Action Plans.
Such Plans include Goals like Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Municipal Operations and Increasing Renewable Energy use.
Supporters say they are Important for Addressing Climate Change and Promoting Public Health. Opponents say that such Plans increase Living Costs and cause Economic Harm.
Twenty-Three of these 25 Cities with Climate Action Plans currently have Democratic Mayors, and Two Cities, Miami and San Diego, have Republican Mayors.
Seven of the Top 10 Largest Cities in the Country have Adopted Climate Action Plans: California; Chicago; Los Angeles; New York; Philadelphia; Phoenix; San Diego; and San Jose.
Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio, are the Largest Cities without Climate Action Plans, although All Three have Plans in Progress.
