Climate Action

Let’s work together to make sure Tualatin is a healthy and thriving place to live today and for future generations.

Tualatin’s Climate Action Plan provides a road map to achieve the city’s goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2050. The plan was adopted in 2024 and includes 146 actions in seven focus areas that the community can take to prepare for climate change and reduce emissions.

Check out the plan

The plan is over 300 pages, but don’t let that discourage you! Start with the executive summary and look at the sections you are most interested in. The plan is divided into four sections: Introduction, Preparing for Climate Change, Reducing Emissions, and Next Steps. Sections are then organized by focus areas, strategies, and actions.
