San José Green Vision Plan

San José’s Green Vision plan was a 15-year sustainability plan that outlined the city’s GHG reduction and waste diversion initiatives until it was replaced by Climate Smart San José in 2018. The plan included planting 100,000 new trees and building or retrofitting 50 million square feet of green buildings.
