Chair and Sustainability Commissioners, | support the Climate Equity Index as an important tnn| to assist the City of [|hU|o Vista in helping our |noo| residents that have been impacted the most by the effects of climate change. As climate and environmental mitigation actions are taken in our city, those who have suffered the most from the excessive burdens of fossil fuel use, eapao|a||y poor health outcomes due to air po||ution, should be first in line. The Climate Equity Index should be used to inform our Climate Action Equity Plan to create goals that lead to environmental justice and opportunities for impacted communities to have a say in plans for their communities. Thank you. Noah Harris Location:92103, San Diego Submitted At: 9:10am 12-14-20 Good evening, Chair and Sustainability Commissioners. My name is Noah Harris, with Climate Action Campaign, writing in support of the Climate Equity Index (CEI). The Climate Equity Index will be an essential tool for the City to direct investments where they are needed most-- communities on the frontlines of the climate crisis and environmental pollution. We applaud Chula Vista for developing this CEI, which is a necessary step towards racial, economic, and environmental justice. To that end, we recommend Chula Vista's Climate Action Plan include a Social Equity section that explicitly defines how the City will use the Climate Equity Index to ensure that communities most impacted by climate change and environmental pollution are prioritized in the implementation of all greenhouse gas emissions reduction strategies. Through the development of a Social Equity section of the CAP, Chula Vista should collaborate with a diverse set of stakeholders and organizations that represent low-income communities of color who are disproportionately harmed by our fossil fuel economy. Thank you. Rita Clement Location:91914, CHULA VISTA Submitted At: 9:49pm 12-11-20 Good evening Sustainability Commissioners. I highly recommend approval of this well thought out Climate Equity Index. There are indicators to show all problems in all areas of the City of Chula Vista. This document will help our city plan for solutions to the impacts of climate change and climate injustice. I recommend sending this Climate Equity Index to the mayor and City Council for approval. This tool is interactive and easy to use. Thank you. Best regards, Rita Clement
