There is no doubt: defeating climate change will demand every ounce of Angelenos’ trademark energy, creativity, determination, and drive — and we have to act now. The United Nations has warned us of the dangers of inaction or incrementalism. But we don’t need a report to confirm what’s right in front of us. The rising temperatures. The pollution we inhale, the flames on our hillsides, the floods on our streets. This crisis is real. This moment demands immediate solutions. This is the fight of our lives. Our generational battle against climate change is a moral imperative, an environmental emergency, and an economic opportunity. True to form, Los Angeles is rising to the occasion with a plan that will lead the world toward a low-carbon, green-energy future. Decades from now, our Green New Deal will have launched careers that will bring pollution to new lows, and power our economy to new highs. But we can’t simply establish big ticket policy objectives. We need to implement them. That’s why we established the Los Angeles Climate Emergency Commission, which will draw the best ideas from neighborhoods on the front lines of climate change, harness the expertise of scientists, and recommend long-term actions to reduce rising temperatures. In Los Angeles, sustainability is a core value that guides all of our work, because our survival depends on it. As Mayor, it is my mandate to create a more livable city, but it is my calling to create a more livable world. Combating climate change meets both responsibilities. Los Angeles will continue to set an example for the country to follow, and invest in a future Angelenos want their children to inherit — one that continues to provide opportunity and prosperity to its residents. Eric Garcetti Four years ago, I introduced L.A.’s first Sustainable City pLAn — a directive that put us on a path to save our environment, grow our economy, and ensure that Los Angeles remains a city of opportunity for all. Angelenos are already seeing the results. We became the number-one solar city in America, pioneered new transportation technologies, reduced our greenhouse gas emissions by 11% in a single year, and created more than 35,000 green jobs. Mayor The pLAn set us on a course for a cleaner environment and a stronger economy. We have made huge strides in our work to curb climate change, meeting or exceeding 90% of our near-term goals on time or early. But we have simultaneously seen the dramatic effects of a warming planet in our communities — from oppressive heat waves that endanger our health, to drought and wildfires that have swept across Southern California. It’s time to think bigger. The scale of our ambitions must meet the magnitude of this crisis. So we are doubling down with L.A.’s Green New Deal and laying out more aggressive goals that will help transform Los Angeles into a carbon neutral city where all Angelenos thrive. We will lead with bold action on every front, by recycling 100% of our wastewater and zeroing out our City’s main sources of harmful emissions: buildings, transportation, electricity, and trash. When we hit our targets, we will cut our emissions by an additional 30% above and beyond the path of our original pLAn — the equivalent of the annual emissions of New York, London, Tokyo, and Hong Kong combined. Our Green New Deal is not just an environmental vision. It is designed to prioritize communities that bear the brunt of climate change first. I recently announced the establishment of a Jobs Cabinet to help train the next generation of workers in the trades of tomorrow — from installing solar panels and standing up energy-efficient homes to developing new energy technologies — so that Angelenos will be prepared to fill 400,000 good, green jobs that can’t be shipped overseas. 6 7 Introduction A Bold Vision for an Inclusive Green Economy When the Mayor released the first Sustainable City pLAn in 2015 he committed to annual progress reports and a major update to the pLAn every four years. With immediate and evolving challenges facing our environment and economy, a renewed commitment to action is needed now more than ever. We are facing a global climate emergency that must be solved with changes right here at home so that we leave behind a safe world for future generations. This report is the first four-year update to the 2015 pLAn. It augments, expands, and elaborates in even more detail L.A.’s vision for a sustainable future and it tackles the climate emergency with accelerated targets and new aggressive goals. This is L.A.’s Green New Deal. L.A.’s Green New Deal is an expanded vision for our pLAn—securing clean air and water and a stable climate, improving community resilience, expanding access to healthy food and open space, and promoting justice for all—and for the future we have to build on behalf of our children and grandchildren. Key Principles LA’s Green New Deal will guide our city’s transition to an equitable and abundant economy powered by 100% renewable energy. This plan will support the creation of hundreds of thousands of good, green jobs in all of our communities by: Building the country’s largest, cleanest, and most reliable urban electrical grid to power the next generation of green transportation and clean buildings. With $8 billion in upgrades to our grid by 2022, $860 million per year to expand the transportation system, and billions more to build clean buildings, we will put Los Angeles at the global center of investment, innovation, and job creation in the green mobility and clean building sectors. Educating and training Angelenos to participate in the new green economy. We will work with partners at all levels of public and private education to foster the training and retraining necessary to move thousands of L.A. households into a thriving middle class built on good, green jobs. Enacting sustainable policies that prioritize economic opportunity. We will mandate and incentivize the transition to a zero carbon city in a way that prioritizes the needs and opportunities of disadvantaged communities, ensuring that the new green economy fulfills the promise of a more just and equitable economy. First, a commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement and to act urgently with a scientifically-driven strategy for achieving a zero carbon grid, zero carbon transportation, zero carbon buildings, zero As with the first Sustainable City pLAn, L.A.’s Green New Deal was prepared with extensive input waste, and zero wasted water. from stakeholders, including community organizations, businesses, academia, labor groups, and City departments.

Los Angeles has been a member since 2005 and Mayor Garcetti has co-chaired the C40 Steering Committee since 2014. 8 9 Introduction What’s New ·· Globally-recognized adherence to a strict carbon Accelerating our Targets ·· Deeper treatment of Air Quality via a new Industrial budget that is consistent with the Paris Climate Emissions and Air Quality Monitoring chapter, as Agreement well as initiatives in Mobility & Public Transit and Zero Emission Vehicles ·· Adoption of a quantitative greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction pathway that charts a course to carbon neutrality ·· Integration of equity initiatives across chapters, identified by the symbol ·· Third-party review of GHG reduction pathways ·· First-ever commitments to address oil and gas operations in the city ·· Dedicated Food Systems chapter incorporating community priorities ·· Urban Ecosystems is expanded to Urban Ecosystems and potential benefits of different initiatives to & Resilience to incorporate 2015 pLAn climate Angelenos resilience goals on urban heat ·· Quantification of projected health outcomes from air quality improvements and job growth from ·· Inclusion and promotion of the leadership of our community partners in achieving our shared goals investments resulting from pLAn commitments L.A.’s Green New Deal accelerates the following targets: ·· Supply 55% renewable energy by 2025; 80% by 2036; and 100% by 2045 ·· Increase the percentage of zero emission vehicles in the city to 25% by 2025; 80% by 2035; and 100% by 2050 ·· Source 70% of our water locally by 2035, and capture 150,000 acre ft/yr (AFY) of stormwater by ·· Create 300,000 green jobs by 2035; and 400,000 by 2050 2035 ·· Reduce building energy use per sq.ft. for all types of buildings 22% by 2025; 34% by 2035; and 44% by ·· Convert all city fleet vehicles to zero emission where technically feasible by 2028 2050 ·· Reduce municipal GHG emissions 55% by 2025 and ·· Reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled per capita by at least 13% by 2025, 39% by 2035, and 45% by 2050 65% by 2035 from 2008 baseline levels, reaching carbon neutral by 2045 ·· Ensure 57% of new housing units are built within 1,500 feet of transit by 2025; and 75% by 2035 ·· Incorporation of homelessness initiatives in ·· A Renewable Energy chapter to incorporate recognition of link to sustainability 2015 pLAn Local Solar and Climate Leadership commitments ·· Emphasis of link between L.A.’s sustainability targets and the United Nations Sustainable ·· Expansion of Energy Efficient Buildings to Clean and Development Goals Healthy Buildings capturing energy efficiency as well as new targets for net zero carbon buildings L.A.’s Green New Deal stats: 13 47 140 45 47 10 Chapters Targets When my grandchildren ask whether we did everything possible to fight climate change, I want us to be able to say: Yes, we did. Milestones Initiatives Partner Initiatives 11 Introduction Our Climate Emergency Accelerating L.A.’s GHG Targets: Million tons CO2 e According to the world’s leading scientists, we have until 2030 – only 11 years – to radically roll back the emissions we have come to depend on in a carbon-based economy. The world must cut emissions by 45% by 2030 and reach net zero emissions by 2050 to stop warming at 1.5C. If we don’t, conditions will significantly worsen on earth for hundreds of millions of people. The Paris Agreement, adopted in December 2015, was the world’s first collective response and commitment to avoid dangerous climate change and limit future temperature increase to 1.5 to 2°C above pre-industrial levels. Based on our commitment to the Paris Agreement, this plan charts a new course for Los Angeles’ emission reduction targets – the 2019 Green New Deal Pathway – which calls for cutting greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) to 50% below 1990 levels by 2025; 73% below 1990 levels by 2035; and becoming carbon neutral by 2050. By following the 2019 Green New Deal Pathway, L.A. cuts an additional 30% in GHG emissions above and beyond our 2015 pLAn and ensures L.A. stays within its carbon budget between now and 2050. 50% 73% CARBON Neutral 2025 2035 2050 Emissions must decline everywhere, as soon as possible. The pace may vary depending on the opportunities and characteristics of each sector, but at the end of the day, L.A.’s Green New Deal puts our city on the road to a zero carbon future across the board. ·· Zero carbon grid ·· Zero carbon buildings ·· Zero carbon on-road transportation ·· Zero waste ·· Dramatic reductions in manufacturing and industrial GHG emissions L.A.

New technologies will be needed, as well as carbon negative projects, such as urban forests, to potentially offset carbon emissions. As with the 2015 Sustainable City pLAn, L.A. will continue to review its progress and course-correct in the years to come. 12 13 Introduction L.A.’s Greenhouse Gas Footprint L.A. has reduced its greenhouse gas emissions 25% below 1990 levels, and our per capita greenhouse gas L.A.’s Green New Deal accelerates our greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets, including 50% below emissions are one-third the national average. 1990 levels by 2025, surpassing the recommendations of the 2018 U.N.

Methane Leaks 14 15 How to Read L.A.’s Green New Deal L.A.’s Green New Deal will result in health outcomes and support a green economy, our findings are Quantifying Air Quality Benefits highlighted in the Benefits to Angelenos page in each chapter. Each chapter also identifies key benefits achieved by the respective targets, milestones, and initiatives, based on an analysis of eight criteria described below. While all chapters support all eight criteria, the Top Five Areas of Impact highlight the areas where we expect to have the greatest impact. Each chapter is assessed on how much it can achieve the following benefits: Poor air quality puts vulnerable and low-income communities at risk and bears significant public health costs to individuals and society. Initiatives throughout this pLAn were studied for the health improvements they will yield from reduced air pollution. This work, assisted by the South Coast Air Quality Management District, included an analysis of particulate matter and ozone pollution reduction from certain policies, and quantified the resulting health improvements – measuring prevented deaths and hospital visits from respiratory and cardiovascular complications, as well as the associated cost savings. Results can be found in the relevant chapters and reveal significant synergies between GHG reductions and better health outcomes. Climate Mitigation: Reduce GHG emissions Quantifying Jobs Access and Equity: Expand access to benefits created by the pLAn (e.g., access to green/healthy spaces, clean energy programs, mobility, etc.) A selection of targets, milestones, and initiatives were studied for their impact on employment in L.A. The model indicates the number of full-time and part-time jobs (including direct and indirect jobs) supported by expected investment levels from each policy, laid out in relevant chapters of this report. The Prosperity and Green Jobs chapter also includes specific targets for green job creation and workforce development. Quality Jobs: Generate quality jobs and support a green, sustainable economy Workforce Development: Improve local workers’ skills, lift labor participation rates, and increase the number of Angelenos achieving higher education Health and Wellbeing: Improve air quality, comfort and mental health, and encourage more physical activity Economic Innovation: Attract investment in innovative industries, promote start-ups, and deepen the knowledge exchange between the private, public, and academic sectors Resilience Sustainability and resilience work hand in hand. Together, the L.A. Green New Deal, the 2018 Resilient Los Angeles strategy, and the 2018 updated Local Hazard Mitigation Plan encompass L.A.’s approach to protecting the most vulnerable Angelenos from climate change shocks and stressors. Policies that increase resilience – climate adaptation, infrastructure modernization, and economic security – are integrated throughout relevant chapters in this report. Building resilience to extreme heat and protecting against urban heat islands is covered specifically in the Urban Ecosystems and Resilience chapter. United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) In 2017, Mayor Garcetti committed to adopting and enacting the UN SDGs at the local level. Under this commitment, L.A. is aligning all of the City’s activities with the SDGs. Each of this pLAn’s 47 targets have been aligned to the SDGs, and reported in each chapter. Increased Affordability: Make it more affordable to live in L.A. (e.g. utility rates, energy costs, and other household bills) Resiliency: Protect L.A. against future climate change, shocks, and unexpected disasters as described in Resilient Los Angeles 16 17 How to Read L.A.’s Green New Deal L.A.’s Green New Deal - What it means inside City government To ensure that we accomplish the accelerated and ambitious goals laid out in this document, the Mayor is establishing new implementation bodies: Climate Emergency Commission (CEC) and an Office of the Climate Emergency Mobilization Director (CEMD) The CEC will be comprised of representatives from disadvantaged communities, indigenous local tribes, small businesses, and labor, as well as policy and science experts and City department senior executives. Jointly, the CEC and CEMD will engage local communities more deliberately around L.A.’s Green New Deal through community assemblies, particularly those who are most vulnerable to climate change and major shifts in our economy. City Council has introduced a motion to establish these roles. Jobs Cabinet The Jobs Cabinet will serve as both an advisory body and a task force on job creation, training, and just transition, with a primary focus on green jobs at the outset. This cabinet, to be comprised of leading employers and workforce development organizations, will: identify gaps in the size, skills, and equitability of the workforce; identify strategies to close those gaps; and develop pathways for implementation of those strategies through new and existing programs, partnerships, and policies. In addition, effective implementation by City government continues to be driven by the following: ·· Coordinated planning and implementation efforts across City government ·· Strong, cohesive, empowered network of Departmental Chief Sustainability Officers (DCSOs) ·· Formation of interagency committees - from EV infrastructure deployment to stormwater project development to oil and gas oversight reform - to tackle specific challenges and realize opportunities that require coordination ·· Formation of a new Office of the Climate Emergency Mobilization Director ·· Accountability through Department General Managers performance reviews and annual goal setting ·· Alignment of budget priorities ·· Transparency through regular progress reporting on L.A. open data portals and global platforms such as the Carbon Disclosure Project. 18 19 Chapter Layout for L.A.’s Green New Deal Targets: Restates the measurable, quantitative, and time-bounded outcomes by 2025, 2035, and 2050.

Placeholder Photo: Photographer Vision: Vision for Los Angeles Whether historic droughts or record-breaking storms, our city has taken head-on a new, more extreme and less predictable normal by becoming a leader in water conservation and smart water policy. The past few years have seen us begin construction on a large groundwater remediation facility, pass a county-wide stormwater measure, and ramp up our wastewater recycling. The next phase will see us accelerate our goals for water supply and quality, from recycling all of our wastewater and fully utilizing our groundwater, to capturing and cleaning our stormwater, and continuing our trend of using less water per capita to reflect that conservation is a California way of life. All of our efforts will lead to one of our most ambitious goals yet: sourcing 70% of our water locally by 2035, marking a true tidal wave of change, and a critical step toward a sustainable future for Los Angeles.

Purchasing imported water uses 3 to 4 times the energy of local water sources such as groundwater and recycled water. The L.A. Aqueduct is gravity fed, producing hydro-electric energy as it moves water, making it carbon neutral. Tracking the GHG footprint of our water portfolio is critical to reaching carbon neutrality. LADWP is actively developing national protocols to monitor GHG emissions related to water management, which will be used in The Climate Registry’s new reporting program for water/energy nexus, opening in May 2019.

Vision for Los Angeles L.A. is home to a diverse population, a dynamic workforce, and a growing economy. Yet too often, the Angelenos left behind by progress – low-income families and communities of color – are disproportionately impacted by pollution and face dire consequences for their health. If we wish to build a truly fair, just, and prosperous city, we have to ensure everyone experiences the benefits of a sustainable future. That’s why we’re electrifying our entire bus fleet, slashing emissions at the Port, and cutting oil production and consumption in the city. That’s also why we’ve partnered with community groups to successfully secure key investments in sustainability and economic growth through Transformative Climate Community (TCC) grants and we are expanding access to community solar and electric vehicle car sharing. Across our plan, we are acting to improve air and water quality, reduce the energy burden of low-income households, address food deserts, provide economic opportunity in green jobs, build greater access to open space – and correct long-running environmental injustice across our city.

BDC is also rolling out statewide consumer education and contractor accreditation programs, while helping governments work together with builders, contractors, and launch a Net Zero Building Technology Accelerator focused on the building technologies to help make zero carbon, zero energy, zero water, and zero waste buildings a reality for the region. The accelerator will source startups with an emphasis on placing pilots with building partners at the end of the program, working closely with industry to address business model and technical issues with these innovative companies before they get to market. In this first year, the program will look to graduate a minimum of five startups. designers on the transition to zero emission buildings 58 Partner Initiatives 59 EwEQo_w>mn_ a.

A Bridge Home Sites being built will offer Support 325,000 1,500 Jobs by 2035 beds by 2021 Top Five Areas of Impact Vision for Los Angeles Building a stronger, more dynamic, more sustainable Los Angeles requires us to put affordable housing within reach for every family and a roof over the head of every Angeleno. Our pLAn tackles this monumental challenge by building on our efforts to end homelessness, preserve and expand affordable housing, and shorten the distance between new homes and transit. We have started to see the results of this strategy: in 2017, over half of new housing units were built within 1,500 feet of different transportation options, and nearly three-quarters within a half-mile. Looking ahead, we will act to cut the city’s unsheltered population, construct new units, and develop housing that is affordable, efficient, and connected to transit. Access & Equity Health & Wellbeing Quality Jobs Resiliency Increased Affordability Path to Zero Carbon By making our homes highly efficient and zero carbon, we will cut half of the emissions from L.A.’s buildings; this is accounted for in the Clean and Healthy Buildings chapter. By building housing near transit, we are also helping Angelenos use public transportation and reduce emissions from vehicle use; this is accounted for in the Zero Emissions Vehicles chapter.

These trends cannot continue. Now, a city known as the car capital of the world is investing more in our transit infrastructure than any other American city in history. More people than ever are walking, biking, using scooters, rideshare, and other modes of transportation to get to and from home and the office. Our streets today are testing grounds for new technology, first/last mile solutions, and major innovations in mobility. In 2028, our residents and guests will be able to get to every Olympic event on public transportation. From light rail to subway to new bus projects, we are building a comprehensive and integrated transit network. And we will not stop this progress in its tracks: by 2035, half of all trips will happen somewhere other than a single occupancy vehicle. Top Five Areas of Impact Quality Jobs Health & Wellbeing Access & Equity Climate Mitigation Workforce Development Path to Zero Carbon L.A.’s carbon neutral pathway calls for deep reductions in GHG emissions from the transportation sector. Building out the transit system in L.A. will enable Angelenos to use public transit and other modes to get where they need to go. This is key to going carbon neutral because mode shift will allow us to reduce today’s transportation emissions by a quarter, equivalent to removing 300,000 cars from the road for one year. U.N.

Reaching this bold target will require us to change the way we think about trash and recycling and move toward a system where discarded materials become resources for others to use; where recycling becomes standard operating procedure for households and businesses; where edible food destined for landfills is recovered to feed hungry people; and where composting ensures we utilize the full value of all waste. In 2017, we launched recycLA which sets the foundation, but there is much more to be done. When we hit our goals, we will decrease our need for landfills and reduce the impacts of waste collection processes—from noise to air pollution—on disadvantaged communities. We will harness our waste as a resource, stimulate economic innovation, and create green jobs.

Since its creation, LA Compost has diverted over 500 tons of food scraps from landfills to be composted for use at urban farms, parks, gardens, and homes. Compost Managers, who live and work within the neighborhoods they serve, are trained in best management practices for healthy and safe composting at community hubs. By the end of 2019, LA Compost will increase its capacity to divert 70 additional tons of food “waste” to total 570 tons annually – the equivalent of removing 85.5 cars off the road each year – and will continue to expand its workforce and commitment to community wellbeing. implementing zero waste standards for productions and events. Their ReDirect service is an alternative to standard disposals, keeping tons of sets and creative waste out of landfills. EcoSet’s Material Oasis reuse center leverages the production process to facilitate the reusing and repurposing of discarded materials. Items such as set walls, scenic elements, construction materials, props, set dressing, and art supplies are recirculated to schools, nonprofits, filmmakers, theaters and artists at no cost to them. EcoSet has already diverted 1,225 tons of waste and plans to expand their ReDirect service to intake and recirculate more materials from TV shows, feature films, events and other types of production. L.A. LIVE Promoting Change at the Workplace L.A. LIVE’s food and materials diversion program, Green Star, provides diversion training to all new kitchen and housekeeping employees at campus restaurants and offices. Exemplary employees who consistently divert food and materials in the workplace are rewarded with their picture being featured on the “Wall of Green Stars” as well as with movie and sporting game tickets. The LA LIVE Management team is currently working with its waste hauler, NASA, to measure progress and set specific goals on increasing waste diversion. 104 Partner Initiatives A shift toward sustainability isn’t just about our physical survival—it’s about our economy. 105 Ensuring access to healthy food in a changing climate 9 Chapter Food Systems Food Systems Benefits to Angelenos Full participation in CalFresh will...

We cannot build a sustainable city without a secure food supply, and we have to act now to ensure every Angeleno, regardless of means or zip code, can feed their families. That’s why we were the first big city in America to require all farmers markets to accept EBT, and why we launched the Good Food Purchasing Policy to reward food vendors who prioritize values of health, fair labor, and justice. And we will continue to do our part: increasing urban agriculture in the city, closing the gap between low-income families and fresh food, scaling the City’s edible food recovery programs, reinforcing the resilience of our food system, and ensuring food scraps are returned back to our soil as nutrients.
