Raleigh's Community Climate Action Data Dashboard

Dashboard Background

In May 2019, Raleigh City Council set a goal to reduce community greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 80% by 2050. The Community Climate Action Plan (CCAP), adopted in 2021, outlines the strategies to meet this goal. CCAP also ensures these strategies address equity and community resilience as well. 

Taking action to reduce GHG emissions has benefits that go beyond climate. Making progress on climate strategies also will improve community health, provide cleaner air, improve walkability and housing choice, and create a more social and connected city.

Data for this dashboard comes from city departments, state organizations, and local partners such as the North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association.  

Check our 2023 CCAP Implementation Report for more information on progress and community action.
