City staff and consultants modeled various scenarios of future carbon emissions, taking into account population changes and statewide policies. The team developed strategies to estimate the potential carbon reductions of Santa Monica’s future efforts. These measures were prioritized by the Steering Committee. Presentations were given at 19 community and business meetings reaching approximately 300 people. These included various meetings of neighborhood associations, community organizations, church groups, business improvement districts and business events. Climate Action Santa Monica, a grassroots climate organization, leads the ‘Climate Corps’ program offering summer internship and volunteer opportunities for students and young adults, The Climate Corps gauge resident and visitors' concerns about climate change issues and support for the City’s climate policies. Augmented reality viewers were installed on the Santa Monica Pier, providing residents and visitors a view into a future with sea level rise. Over 10,000 participants were surveyed on their climate change concerns and adaptation preferences. In 2016, Santa Monica held its first ever Community Climate Action Summit, inviting residents, visitors and businesses to contribute to the plan. Over 250 individuals participated in the day-long event filled with expert speakers, interactive workshops, open discussion and exhibitors. Following on the success of the Community Climate Action Summit, the City held ClimateFest in May 2018. The event featured localexperts on climate policy and provided accessible resources for individual climate action. Over 600 people attended, interacting with various themes of the plan.
