LA City Climate Vulnerability Assessment
The City of Los Angeles has published its 2024 Climate Vulnerability Assessment (CVA), outlining a strategic plan to enhance the city's resilience against climate change. The assessment, a collaborative effort with community input, identifies risks posed by extreme heat, flooding, and wildfires, and highlights disproportionate vulnerabilities faced by communities of color and other marginalized groups. By taking a "whole city" approach, the CVA provides a roadmap for equitable action, ensuring resources are directed to the most vulnerable residents. This proactive step marks a significant milestone in the city's commitment to building a safer, more sustainable future for all Angelenos.
