The Chicago Climate Action Plan (CCAP) is Chicago's climate change mitigation and adaptation strategy that was adopted in September 2008.〔http://www.chicagoclimateaction.org/filebin/pdf/0918climatechangefinalrelease.pdf〕 The CCAP has an overarching goal of reducing Chicago's greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050, with an interim goal of 25 percent below 1990 levels by 2020.〔(Chicago Climate Action Plan )〕 ==Background== A greenhouse gas emissions forecast projected that Chicago’s emissions would increase to 39.3 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent by 2020 under a business-as-usual scenario. One projected global warming impact is an increase in days that have temperatures over one hundred degrees. Under the business-as-usual scenario, the number of these days would increase to thirty-one annually, while under a lower emissions scenario, such as that called for in the Chicago Climate Action Plan, the number of these days would increase to eight annually. Climate change has many impacts, including an economic impact.〔http://www.chicagoclimateaction.org/filebin/pdf/report/CorporateRisk2008August5.pdf〕 The Chicago Climate Action Plan seeks to address climate change by decreasing greenhouse gas emissions to mitigate its effects, while preparing for climate change through adaptation actions.
