In the Fall of 2019, the City of Providence released it’s Climate Justice Plan–a report that outlines the goal to not only become carbon neutral by 2050 but also to dedicate resources to frontline communities in leading the charge. The report includes information about the equitable process that was used to develop the plan. It also includes seven sections on which the plan is focused that detail objectives, targets, and actions developed to achieve climate justice in Providence. The report includes focus areas such as Collaborative Governance and Accountability, Housing and Buildings, Community Health, Local and Regenerative Economy, Clean Energy, and Transportation.
