A Climate Ready County
San Mateo County is a vibrant and thriving place to live, work, and play. We value this area and all that it has to offer, which is why the County of San Mateo is actively preparing for climate risks such as rising temperatures and heatwaves, wildfires, extreme storms, sea level rise and coastal erosion. While the changing climate poses many risks to the people and places in San Mateo County, together we can plan to adapt and protect our people and our valuable resources.

The team works with cross-sector and community partners to coordinate knowledge sharing and collaborative action within San Mateo County.
