Del Mar Adopts Climate Action Plan

Del Mar became the second city in the county to declare its goal of switching exclusively to renewable energy by 2035, according to a climate action approved Monday by the city council.

The document, which follows a similar plan approved by San Diego in December, spells out measures to reduce the city’s carbon emissions. It directs Del Mar to explore ways of purchasing renewable energy directly and aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 15 percent by 2020 and by 50 percent by 2035.
