SUMMARY:Austin Climate Equity Plan Steering Committee Panel
DESCRIPTION:Meet the Austin Climate Equity Plan Steering Committee members! \nJoin us for a moderated virtual panel discussion with the team of community members who helped lead the Austin Climate Equity Plan process. In this panel we will talk about the Steering Committee Members’ role in the Climate Equity Plan and dig into topics related to the intersection of climate change and racial and environmental justice. \nBackground: Since the first Community Climate Plan was adopted in 2015\, we’ve made progress in reducing community-wide emissions in Austin\, despite rapid population growth and a growing GDP. But\, over the course of the last five years\, a lot has changed in terms of technology\, cost\, and feasibility. We also know that the rate of global warming is happening faster than we thought\, so the need to lower emissions is more urgent than ever. We also know that low-income communities and communities of color are more impacted by the climate crisis despite generally having contributed the least to climate change. With all of this in mind\, a team of City staff and community members set to update the Climate Plan. \nThe plan update process involved a Steering Committee and five advisory groups that met through Summer 2020. These groups worked to identify strategies that will help our city curb emissions while increasing equity. The advisory groups include Sustainable Buildings\, Transportation and Land Use\, Transportation Electrification\, Consumption of Goods\, and Natural Systems. We are aiming to present the plan to Austin City Council in November 2020. \nInterpretation Services & Closed Captioning: Language interpretation will be available upon request. Please notify us of this request by Monday\, September 21st. This panel discussion will be live recorded and closed-captioning will be available once publicly posted. \nMore details: The Austin Climate Equity Plan is available for public feedback! Please see our forum on SpeakUp Austin for more information on how to provide input by Sept. 30. \nContact: Please contact celine.rendon@austintexas.gov if you have any questions. \nThis event will also be livestreamed on our facebook page. \n—————————————————————————– \n¡Conozca a las personas que participaron en el Comité Directivo del Plan de Equidad Climática! \nÚnase a nosotros para una mesa redonda virtual moderada con el equipo de miembros de la comunidad que ayudó a liderar el proceso del Plan de Equidad Climática de Austin. En este panel hablaremos sobre el papel de los miembros del Comité Directivo en el Plan de Equidad Climática y profundizaremos en temas relacionados con la intersección del cambio climático y la justicia racial y ambiental. \nAntecedentes: Desde que se adoptó el primer Plan de Clima de la Comunidad en 2015\, hemos avanzado en la reducción de las emisiones de toda la comunidad en Austin\, a pesar del rápido crecimiento de la población y el crecimiento del PIB. Pero\, en el transcurso de los últimos cinco años\, mucho ha cambiado en términos de tecnología\, costo y viabilidad. También sabemos que la tasa de calentamiento global está ocurriendo más rápido de lo que pensábamos\, por lo que la necesidad de reducir las emisiones es más urgente que nunca. También sabemos que las comunidades de bajos ingresos y las comunidades de color se ven más afectadas por la crisis climática a pesar de que\, en general\, han contribuido menos al cambio climático. Con todo esto en mente\, un equipo de personal de la Ciudad y miembros de la comunidad se dispuso a actualizar el Plan Climático. \nEl proceso de actualización del plan involucró a un comité directivo y cinco grupos asesores que se reunieron hasta el verano de 2020. Estos grupos trabajaron para identificar estrategias que ayudarán a nuestra ciudad a reducir las emisiones al mismo tiempo que aumentan la equidad. Los grupos asesores incluyen Edificios Sostenibles\, Transporte y uso de suelos\, Electrificación del transporte\,Consumo de alimentos y productos\, y Sistemas naturales. Nuestro objetivo es presentar el plan al Ayuntamiento de Austin en noviembre de 2020. \nServicios de interpretación y subtítulos: Interpretación al español estará disponible a pedido. Infórmenos de esta solicitud antes del lunes 21 de septiembre. Este panel de discusión se grabará en vivo y los subtítulos estarán disponibles una vez que se publiquen. \nMás detalles: ¡El Plan de Equidad Climática de Austin está disponible para recibir comentarios del público! Consulte nuestro foro en SpeakUp Austin para obtener más información sobre cómo realizar aportes antes del 30 de septiembre \nContacto: Por favor comuníquese con celine.rendon@austintexas.gov si tiene alguna pregunta. \nEste evento también se transmitirá en vivo en nuestra página de facebook.

SUMMARY:Community Climate Ambassador Panel
DESCRIPTION:Meet Austin’s Community Climate Ambassadors! \nThe Office of Sustainability is in the process of updating Austin’s Climate Equity Plan. As part of this process\, 12 individuals were selected to act as Community Climate Ambassadors to gather and share information about climate change and sustainability with their community and social circles. An important part of creating\, and ultimately implementing\, this plan has been reaching out to groups that have historically been left out of the conversation about climate change. \nJoin us for a moderated virtual panel discussion with our Ambassadors and learn about their role and experiences participating in the Climate Equity Plan process. \nBackground: We know that climate solutions have the potential to improve the quality of life of all Austinites\, but climate change impacts don’t affect everyone equally. Ensuring that we are increasing equity while mitigating greenhouse gases means examining the history of racial segregation and environmental justice issues in Austin. Because of this\, we are engaging with a racially and economically diverse set of people about the challenges\, barriers\, and opportunities facing historically underrepresented groups — specifically\, people of color — in conversations around energy\, transportation\, food and access to nature. Community concerns and feedback informed the plan’s goals and strategies\, and are referenced throughout the plan. While the Climate Equity Plan will not be able to solve all of Austin’s equity challenges\, the goal of the Climate Ambassadors program was to bring to light community members’ concerns and find opportunities to begin the process of recovery and healing. \nInterpretation Services & Closed Captioning: Spanish interpretation will be available. This panel discussion will be live recorded and closed-captioning will be available once publicly posted. \nMore details: The overall goal of the Climate Equity Plan is to identify tangible and quantifiable actions that local government\, businesses and community members can undertake in the next 5-10 years. \nContact: Please contact celine.rendon@austintexas.gov if you have any questions. \n—————————————————————————– \n¡Únase con la Oficina de Sostenibilidad de la Ciudad para destacar a nuestros Embajadores del Clima Comunitario! \nLa Oficina de Sostenibilidad está en proceso de actualizar el Plan de Equidad Climática de Austin. Como parte del proceso del Plan de Equidad Climática\, se seleccionaron 12 personas para actuar como Embajadores del Clima Comunitario para recopilar y compartir información sobre el cambio climático y la sostenibilidad con sus círculos comunitarios y sociales. Una parte importante de la creación y la eventual implementación de este plan ha sido priorizar a grupos que históricamente han quedado fuera de la conversación sobre el clima. \nDurante este panel de discusión moderado\, los Embajadores del Clima de la Comunidad discutirán su papel y las lecciones aprendidas al participar en el programa. \nAntecedentes: Sabemos que las soluciones climáticas tienen la posibilidad de mejorar la calidad de vida de todos los habitantes de Austin\, pero los impactos del cambio climático no afectan a todos por igual. Asegurar que estemos aumentando la equidad mientras que mitigamos los gases de efecto invernadero significa examinar la historia de la segregación racial y los problemas de justicia ambiental en Austin. Debido a esto\, queriamos comunicarnos con grupos de personas que son racialmente y económicamente diversas sobre los desafíos\, las barreras y oportunidades que enfrentan los grupos históricamente subrepresentados—específicamente\, las personas de color—en los temas de energía\, transporte\, alimentos y acceso a la naturaleza. Las inquietudes y comentarios de la comunidad informaron las metas y estrategias del plan\, y se mencionan en las secciones correspondientes a lo largo del plan. El Plan de Equidad Climática no podrá resolver todos los desafíos de equidad de Austin\, pero el objetivo del programa de Embajadores del Clima Comunitario fue destacar las preocupaciones de los miembros de la comunidad y encontrar oportunidades para comenzar el proceso de recuperación y curación. \nServicios de interpretación y subtítulos: Servicio de interpretación en español estará disponible. Este panel de discusión se grabará en vivo y la opción de subtítulos cerrados estará disponible una vez que se publique. \nMás detalles: El objetivo general del Plan Climático es identificar acciones tangibles y cuantificables que el gobierno local\, las empresas y los miembros de la comunidad pueden tomar en los próximos 5 a 10 años. \nContacto: Por favor comuníquese con celine.rendon@austintexas.gov si tiene alguna pregunta.
