3.4 Mitigation and adaptation goals In addition to its primary goal of carbon neutrality by the year 2050, PlanClima has developed a trajectory with mitigation and adaptation to climate change goals. The main ones are presented here.

Mitigation goals: Energy  40 per cent of buildings with photovoltaic modules  100 per cent of renewed buildings with high energy efficiency standards  100 per cent of new buildings with high-energy efficiency standards Waste:  10 per cent of waste sent to landfill Transport:  85 per cent of movements by public transport and active mobility  100 per cent of passenger vehicles working on renewable or clean energy

Adaptation goals: Inundation - macro drainage  Increase the rainfall distributed retention volume throughout the rivers of the main hydrographic basins, prioritizing nature-based solutions Flooding - microdrainage  Increase reservation volume with reservation tanks distributed in the city  Improve the system for maintenance, cleaning and clearance of a rainfall collection network  Increase permeability in the city Heatwaves  Increase the reservation capacity for drinking water collection  Increase and requalify urban green areas, from forests to tree-lined roads  Reduce water losses in the city’s water supply system
