Housing Solutions are Climate Solutions
California can combat our severe housing shortage and meet critical climate goals.
Through effective policies, we can address the impacts of climate change, help all Californians find safe and affordable housing, create resilient communities, and protect working and natural land.
The Problem
California is in the midst of both a severe housing shortage and a climate crisis—both of which disproportionately impact low-income residents and communities of color. The recent catastrophic wildfires make it clear that we cannot continue the current land use policies that force Californians further into remote areas.
In order to combat these crises, we need to craft policies that incentivize building near jobs and transit and disincentivize sprawl.
