Building a cross-sector coalition: sustainable communities for all and CA’s cap-and-trade program

No 2015-2, Community Development Working Paper from Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco

Abstract: Why should community developers care about cap-and-trade and what do carbon emissions have to do with low-income households? As it turns out, the fields of environmental sustainability and community development have significant overlap, particularly in the area of transit-oriented development, where issues of affordability, equity, and displacement converge with concerns such as vehicle miles traveled and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
