Raleigh's Community Climate Action Data Dashboard

Dashboard Background Buildings & Energy Transportation Resilience, Waste, and Implementation Strategies

This dashboard shows progress on high impact GHG emissions reduction strategies. It includes data on transportation, renewable energy, building efficiency, and more. This information can help the Raleigh community make decisions on projects, investments and everyday actions.

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.

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