Climate ActionChildren running on a trail

From wildfire smoke to extreme heat, our community is regularly impacted by climate change. Tigard City Council declared climate action a priority in April 2021 and our work involves climate action that both reduces the community’s impact on the climate crisis, and makes the community resilient to the inequitable impacts of climate change. The City of Tigard is committed to making sustainable living accessible, affordable, and actionable for every resident.

Centering Equity and Environmental Justice

Historically excluded communities experience negative health and economic impacts of climate change disproportionately as a result of inequitable public policy. We center equity and environmental justice through community involvement and apply our Racial Equity Toolkit to evaluate decisions to reduce impacts and unintended consequences on historically excluded communities.
