Fort Lauderdale Net Zero Plan 2025

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  3

SOME OF THE WAYS NET ZERO WILL BENEFIT FORT LAUDERDALE

Development of an Achievable Net Zero Plan The development of Fort Lauderdale’s Net Zero Plan involved a thorough review of existing municipal and community energy use, GHG emissions, waste, and climate policies. The Plan aligns with key City and regional strategies, including the Fast Forward 2035 Vision Plan and the Advance Fort Lauderdale 2040 Comprehensive Plan . This Net Zero Plan is a natural outgrowth of these previously approved planning efforts and provides actionable implementation steps to realize net zero. Stakeholder engagement was an invaluable component in the development of this Plan, incorporating input from nine internal City department meetings, two presentations to the Sustainability Advisory Board, two public virtual informational meetings, and two community workshops to ensure broad input and buy-in.
