AND ACTION SUMMARY ARE AVAILABLE ON THE COUNTY WEBSITE: www.co.del-norte.ca.us BOARD OF SUPERVIOSRS COUNTY OF DEL NORTE STATE OF CALIFORNIA UNITED STATES COOL COUNTIES CLIMATE STABILIZATION DECLARATION WHEREAS, there is a consensus among the world's leading
scientists that global warming caused by human emission of greenhouse gases is among the most
significant problems facing the world today; and WHEREAS, documented impacts of global warming include but are not limited to increased occurrences of extreme weather events (i.e. droughts and floods), adverse impacts on plants and wildlife habitats, threats to global food and water supplies - all of which have an economic impact on communities and their local governments; and WHEREAS, leading scientists have projected that stabilization of climate change in time to minimize such impacts will require a reduction
of global warming emissions to 80 percent below current levels by the year 2050; and WHEREAS, currently the United States is responsible for
producing approximately 25 percent of world's global warming pollutants; and WHEREAS, many leading U.S. companies that have adopted greenhouse gas reduction programs to demonstrate corporate and operational responsibility have also publicly expressed preference for the federal government to adopt
precise and mandatory emissions targets and timetables as a means by which to provide a uniform and predictable regulatory environment to encourage and enable necessary and long-term business investments; and WHEREAS, state, regional and local governments throughout the United States are adopting emissions reduction targets and programs and that his effort is bipartisan, coming from Republican and Democratic leadership; and WHEREAS, the U.S. Conference of Mayors has endorsed the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement, which commits cities to reduction of global warming emissions to 7 percent below 1990 levels by 2012, and calls for a federal limit on emissions; and WHEREAS, the State of California has mandated statewide
reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050; and WHEREAS; more than 100 county leaders signed a letter
written by Dane County, Wisconsin, that was sent to the President in March 2006 calling for increased energy investment and development of jobs focused on clean energy technologies; and WHEREAS, counties have a unique role to play in reducing
greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for the impacts of climate change through their regional jurisdiction over policy areas such as air quality, land use planning, transportation,
zoning, forest preservation, water conservation, and wastewater and solid waste management; and WHEREAS, the economic arguments for implementing climate
solutions are compelling, from the near-term economic gains of energy efficiency
to the long-term climate stabilization that can prevent irreparable harm from catastrophic
climate change impacts; and WHEREAS, many counties throughout the nation, both large and small, are reducing global warming pollutants through programs that provide
economic and quality of life benefits such as reducing energy bills, preserving green space, implementing better land use policies, improving air quality, promoting waste-to-energy programs,
expanding transportation and work choices to reduce traffic congestion,
and fostering more economic development and job creation through energy conservation and
new technologies; and NOW, THEREFORE WE DECLARE, We as Cool Counties will take immediate steps to help the federal, state, and our governments within our county to achieve the 2050 climate stabilization goal by making the following commitments: i. Create an inventory of our county government (operational) greenhouse Gas ("GHG") emissions and implement policies, programs and operations to achieve significant, measurable and sustainable reduction of those operational GHG emissions to help contribute to the regional reduction targets as identified in paragraph ii; ii. Work closely with local, state, and federal governments
and other leaders to reduce county geographical GHG emissions to 80 percent below current levels by 2050 by developing a GHG emissions inventory and regional plan that establishes short-, mid-, and long-term GHG reduction targets, with recommended goals to stop increasing emissions by 2010, and to achieve a 10 percent reduction with five years thereafter through to
2050. iii. Urge Congress and the Administration to enact a multi-sector
national program of requirements, market-based limits
, and incentives for reducing GHG emissions to 80 percent below current
levels by 2050. Urge Congress and the Administration to strengthen standards by enacting legislation such as a Corporate Average
Fuel Economy ("CAFE") standard that achieves at least 35 miles per gallon (mpg) within 10 years for cars and light trucks. We will take immediate steps to identify regional climate
change impacts; we will draft and implement a county plan to prepare for and build resilience to those impacts. PASSED AND ADOPTED this 14 day of August
2007 by the following polled vote.

MURANISHI COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR July 25, 2007 Jeannine Galatioto, County Administrative Officer Del Norte County 981 H Street Suite 210 Crescent City, CA 95531 Dear Ms. Galatioto: Subject: Cool Counties Initiative DONNA LINTON ASSISTANT COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR Attached is a copy of a letter and declaration sent by Scott Haggerty, President of the Alameda County Board of Supervisors , to the Board Presidents/Chairs of all California counties inviting them to join him in signing the U.S. Cool Counties Climate
Stabilization Declaration. On July 16, 2007 at the National Association of Counties (NACO) in Richmond, Virginia, 12 pioneering counties representing 17 million people launched "Cool Counties". This initiative calls for county governments nationwide to take significant action to address climate change and plan for climate change impacts in their region and to actively urge the federal government to enact multi-sector national programs to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Alameda County was one of 12 founding counties from across the country that pledged to take action and to encourage other counties to sign on and to take action. Alameda County is challenging California to become
the first 100% Cool Counties state, where all counties, as well as cities sign
on to the Declaration. As County leaders, we have a unique opportunity to guide the direction
of climate mitigation and adaptation measures if we assert our leadership now. We iiit ic ii yo 74.:9 j. n in Lhri partn:•cs iy adopting the a tac d U? S ^^oo I^nYMnt e Climate Stabilization Declaration . We are
excited to move the initiative forward alongside tho lead organizing government, King County, Washington, and national
partner, the Sierra Club. When we meet at the November CSAC Annual Meeting in Oakland, we hope that at least a majority of California counties will have committed to participating in the Cool Counties Initiative. Please call me at (510) 272-3862 if you have any questions. Alameda County looks forward to working with you on this collaborative effort. Very truly yours, Susan S.

19, 2007 Subject: Invitation to Sign U.S. Cool Counties
Climate Stabilization Declaration On July 16, 2007 at the National Association of Counties Annual Conference in Richmond, Virginia, 12 pioneering counties representing 17 million people launched "Cool Counties." The Cool Counties initiative seeks to marshal the resources of all 3066 counties across the nation to address the challenges global warming poses to our communities. Today, I invite you to join me in signing the U.S. Cool Counties Climate Stabilization Declaration. I was honored to represent Alameda County at the kick-off event for this major new initiative to combat global warming. As the first California county to sign the Declaration, I committed to inviting all 57 other California counties to join the campaign. I challenge us to become the first 100% Cool Counties state, where all counties
sign on to the Declaration . As California's county leaders, we have a unique opportunity
to guide the direction of climate mitigation and adaptation measures if we assert our leadership now. Participating counties commit to four smart actions: • To look at our own operations to assess what policy or program changes we can enact to lower the greenhouse gas emissions produced by county governments and other areas under county jurisdiction; • To work with our communities to reduce countywide greenhouse gas emissions 80% below current levels by 2050, an achievable annual average of 2%; •
To identify local vulnerabilities to climate change and create a plan to address them; • To work with our counterparts nationally to urge the federal
government to adopt legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 80% below current
levels by 2050, the level scientists agree is necessary to prevent catastrophic effects on human civilization. These actions directly benefit counties and serve as a tremendous opportunity for us to demonstrate leadership. Our regional role and perspective as county government positions us to take action. 1221 OAK STREET • SUITE 536 • OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA 94612 • 510 272-6691 • FAX 510 208-3910 4501 PLEASANTON AVENUE • PLEASANTON, CALIFORNIA 94566 • 925 551-6995 • FAX 925 484-2809 PRINTED BY UNION LABOR • LOCALS 342
& 616 We should be the first 100% Cool Counties state because the State of California has already committed to reduce emissions 80% below 1990 levels by 2050. State
climate measures will affect general plans, regional transportation plans, agricultural regulatory
practices, energy conservation investments, and other areas of county regulatory authority
and operational practices. We can be the first 100% Cool Counties state
because many of our jurisdictions have already demonstrated that greenhouse gas reductions make business
sense. In addition, many measures offer additional benefits to our citizens such as energy
security, dollar savings, cleaner air, and healthier lifestyles. We must be the first 100% Cool Counties
state because we as local governments are already experiencing climate change impacts. In California in particular, air quality degradation, sea level rise, and more frequent droughts, floods, and heat waves threaten food and water supplies, damage infrastructure, and strain our county resources. The Cool Counties Initiative is a timely vehicle for counties to unite on global warming. Eight counties in California have already joined the ICLEI Cities for Climate Protection Campaign and many have taken action to address climate change. It was just two years ago that our counterparts in the nation's cities launched the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement, also known as Cool Cities. Participation now exceeds 600 mayors
(including 94 from California), representing 67 million people. Cool Counties provides us with a framework to learn from each other's successes and to exercise a strong collective
voice at higher levels of government. Please join us in this partnership by adopting
the attached U:S. Cool Counties Climate Stabilization Declaration. We are excited to move the initiative forward alongside the lead organizing government, King County, Washington, and national partner, the Sierra Club. When we meet together at the November CSAC Annual Meeting in Oakland, I am confident that we will have reached the goal of at least a majority of California counties participating in Cool Counties. Please contact my office at (510) 272-6691 for additional information. Alameda County looks forward to working with you on this collaborative effort.
