The San Diego region’s climate is changing.
And according to the “San Diego, 2050 is Calling” report, 84% of San Diego County residents agree.
The report states that by working together and investing today, we can reduce regional emissions of heat-trapping gases and prepare for climate change, helping to ensure a high quality of life and strong regional economy for our children and future generations.
The “2050 is Calling” report, produced by The San Diego Foundation and Climate Education Partners (CEP), is part of an effort to engage local expert scientists, educators and a wide range of community leaders in climate change. It was also created to help San Diegans learn more about, prepare for and respond to the impacts of a changing climate.
“2050 is Calling” covers San Diego regional climate issues ranging from temperature and precipitation, water resources, coastal flooding, wildfires, nature and health. Below are 5 eye-opening infographics we grabbed from the report to share.

We have partnered with the San Diego Regional Climate Collaborative on a new grant opportunity to help local governments and public agencies build resilience to San Diego climate change. Total available funding for this grant program is approximately $200,000.
On August 9, 2022, we awarded $838,704 in Opening the Outdoors grants to 24 nonprofit organizations that offer equitable access to outdoor spaces in San Diego County.
“San Diego Foundation is proud to once again support its partners committed to increasing community-driven efforts to enhance accessible outdoor space, encourage youth to learn more through hands-on education and create the next generation of environmental stewards in the San Diego region,” said Christiana DeBenedict, SDF Director of Environment Initiatives.
This year’s grantees will help address these inequities and enhance access to the outdoors throughout San Diego County.
