Pla Clima
Climate change is here, and we are already feeling its effects in the form of droughts and heat waves, which have a direct impact on our health. Cities play a key role in finding solutions to mitigate its consequences and adapting to become more resilient, sustainable and healthy.
Barcelona has historically been a pioneer in its struggle to combat climate change with innovative policies like the Citizen Commitment for a More Sustainable Barcelona, the Climate Emergency Declaration and the adaptation of the 2030 Agenda.
The Pla Clima is the roadmap for making Barcelona a climate-neutral city well adapted to climate change by 2030.
