Welcome to Our Climate Future!#
The City's climate initiatives center around Our Climate Future (OCF). OCF is a plan to guide Fort Collins, Colorado toward a more sustainable future while focusing on the needs of its people. It highlights the importance of putting people first when dealing with climate change.
Our Climate Future focuses on achieving three main goals by 2030:
Carbon Neutrality
Cut greenhouse gas emissions by 80% compared to 2005 levels, which will help with a goal of 100% carbon neutrality by 2050.
Renewable Electricity
100% renewable electricity from both the grid and local sources.
Zero Waste
Reach zero waste, meaning nothing goes to landfills. Instead, waste gets reused, recycled, and composted.
While these three goals are central to Our Climate Future, there's much more to this community guide.
