A Boulder County economic analysis projected that for every dollar spent on local energy programs, almost half remained in Boulder County. Expansion of programs to install solar and improve building energy performance will generate hundreds of additional jobs in the Boulder area. | |||

Opportunities | 6.0 | Please indicate the opportunities your city has identified as a result of addressing climate change and describe how the city is positioning itself to take advantage of these opportunities. | 2 | Describe how the city is maximizing this opportunity | 2 | Local renewable energy investments and related system improvements such as undergrounding, microgrids, and equipment upgrades will not only help achieveenergy system change and emission reduction goals but will also improve the system’s reliability, resilience and safety. These actions are also essential steps in building a local energy system capable of ensuring energy services during disruptive events. | |||

Opportunities | 6.0 | Please indicate the opportunities your city has identified as a result of addressing climate change and describe how the city is positioning itself to take advantage of these opportunities. | 2 | Describe how the city is maximizing this opportunity | 3 | A significant theme in the extensive community engagementconducted on climate issues was the importance of ensuring that the costs and benefits of a transition to renewable energy and other climate-related actions are shared equitably. A set of three goals for a “just transition” was developed in collaboration with community groups. Inclusion of these social equity goals can substantially improve the well-being of the community, particularly those most affected by unpredictable and rising energy costs and climate change impacts. | |||

Opportunities | 6.0 | Please indicate the opportunities your city has identified as a result of addressing climate change and describe how the city is positioning itself to take advantage of these opportunities. | 2 | Describe how the city is maximizing this opportunity | 4 | As a community, Boulder spends approximately $300 million annually on energy, with over $120 million spent on electricity. The transition to a renewable energy economy with a significant proportion coming from local sources has the potential to significantly increase the money staying in the community related to energy expenditures. | |||

Opportunities | 6.0 | Please indicate the opportunities your city has identified as a result of addressing climate change and describe how the city is positioning itself to take advantage of these opportunities. | 2 | Describe how the city is maximizing this opportunity | 5 | There are significant local air and water quality impacts associated with fossil fuel use. Substantially reducing and eventually eliminating this use will have multiple environmental benefits while also reducing indoor and outdoor air and water pollution and related health impacts. | |||

Opportunities | 6.0 | Please indicate the opportunities your city has identified as a result of addressing climate change and describe how the city is positioning itself to take advantage of these opportunities. | 2 | Describe how the city is maximizing this opportunity | 6 | The city has a requirement that all marijuana cultivation facilities must offset 100% of their electricity use with renewable energy. This can be done through on-site renewables, community solar, or by paying into a newly created Energy Impact Offset Fund (EIOF). The EIOF collects about $400,000/year and the money is used to develop local renewable energy projects that reduce GHG emissions. https://bouldercolorado.gov/planning/city-of-boulder-energy-impact-offset | |||
| 175795 | 54104 | City of Boulder, CO | United States of America | North America | 6. Opportunities | 6.12 | Describe how your city plans to enhance ambition and scale up Climate Action Plan (integrated/adaptation/mitigation) and actions to achieve climate neutrality, net zero emissions, carbon neutrality or 100% renewables. | 0 | The City of Boulder is currently engaged in a climate mobilization action plan (CMAP), a community-centered process which will result in a new climate strategy in response to renewed climate urgency. Fully addressing climate change will require immediate, system-scale action to create an equitable future, rapidly reduce emissions and accelerate technological innovation, which we aim to address under CMAP. The high level mitigation goals for our community are as follows: - 70% emissions reduction by 2030 from a 2018 baseline- Net Zero emissions by 2035- Net Positive emissions by 2040The mobilization action plan is centered around five main focus areas, with equity and resilience as core considerations embedded in all climate programs and policies. The objectives and targets for each focus areas are detailed below:Energy System Objectives:- Ensure equitable and affordable access to energy.- Establish a safe, healthy, and resilient fossil-fuel-free energy system.- Eliminate operational carbon from our existing building stock.- Achieve Net Zero carbon in new construction.- Provide clean mobility solutions that meet community needs.Energy System Targets:- 100% of our community members will have unburdened access to basic heating, cooling, and energy needs by 2035. - Our energy system will deliver 100% renewable electricity by 2030 and strive to meet the resiliency and reliability needs of the community.- Our existing building stock will promote health and wellbeing of occupants and have zero operational emissions by 2040.- Achieve zero operational emissions in all new buildings with a 40% reduction in embodied emissions by 2031.- Clean mobility options will be culturally, geographically, and economically diverse by 2035.- 30% vehicle miles travelled in Boulder will be electric by 2030. Circular Materials Economy Objectives:- Minimize Waste production per capita and maximize diversion from landfills. - Reduce the carbon footprint of production cycles we have the greatest ability to affect- Employ circular principals in building construction and demolition.- Enable repair, reuse, and remanufacturing of components and materials.- Establish an economic basis for circular entrepreneurship and innovation.Circular Materials Economy Targets: - Become a zero-waste city by 2025 (85% diversion from landfills).- Optimize organic waste to promote soil health in our community by 2030.- Reduce community consumption-based emissions 50% by 2030 against a 2019 baseline.- Design buildings such that 25% of high emission intensity materials may be captured and reused by 2030. - Materials and products are designed to last with the ability to recycle, reuse, repair, or remanufacture at the end of product life by 2030. - Increase participation in sharing platforms 30% over a 2020 baseline to foster equitable access to goods and services over ownership by 2030.- Foster community and entrepreneurial partnerships and platforms to promote repair and reuse by 2030.Regenerative Ecosystem Objectives:- Increase natural carbon sequestration within and beyond our boundaries.- Advance the field of natural climate solutions beyond Boulder.- Design actions to maximize equitable ecosystem benefits.- Support the growth of economic sectors that sustain critical ecosystem services.Regenerative Ecosystem Targets:- After prioritizing GHG reductions, remove 50,000 tons of CO2 annually by 2030 through forest, urban tree, and soil landscape restoration.- Develop globally accessible tools for carbon management and optimal ecosystem services planning by 2025.- Reach 20% tree canopy by 2035, targeting growth of canopy cover in areas of greatest need. - Reduce urban heat island in energy burdened neighborhoods 1°C by 2030 from a 2015 baseline.- Create a closed loop system that reduces fire risk in our community, converts biomass to biochar, and generates clean energy to fuel buildings by 2030. - Strive towards 40% of new employment to equity-based opportunities to participate in “green” sector jobs. | |||||
