Tree planting is an obvious, inexpensive way to mitigate excessive carbon and heat. Yet San Diego’s accessory dwelling unit (ADU) and junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU) legislation directly contradicts its Climate Action Plan, significantly reducing the tree canopy; building to the property line, paving yards for parking, easily removes any vestige of green.
Here’s a prime opportunity to mandate trees rather than destroy the urban canopy. If climate action programs include ordinances requiring newly built homes to use electricity for cooking and heating as mentioned, how much cheaper and easier it would be to mandate all new housing include at least one tree on the property, better one tree per unit? This critical addition to the ADU ordinance would do much to combat climate change and nothing to reduce the amount of added housing provided.
