San Diego Climate Action Plan
San Diego Climate Action Plan. The San Diego Climate Action Plan was adopted by the city of San Diego in December 2015. It is a local climate action plan whose rules are defined by the California global warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB 32), with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Through this plan, the city set goals of eliminating half of all greenhouse emissions and sourcing all energy from renewable sources by the year 2035. With a coalition of business owners, environmental advocates, and community leaders, Mayor Kevin Faulconer approved the Climate Action Plan. The Climate Action Plan consists of several policies to ensure the economic and environmental growth of the city of San Diego. It was referred to in The San Diego Union-Tribune as "the most aggressive climate action plan in California."

San Diego Climate Action Plan. Strategies The plan identifies five specific sectors: Transportation was considered the largest sector of concern due to its overall contribution to greenhouse emissions and due to widespread reliance on high-emissions transportation methods. To ensure progress of the plan, there are three phases of the Climate Action Plan: Phase 1: Early Action 2016-2017, Phase 2: Mid-Term 2018-2020, and Phase 3: Long-Term 2021-2035. Several departments within the local government and community will be involved to achieve the desire goal of a better future. A Climate Action Campaign has begun in response to this plan with the help of organizations such as the Sierra Club. Yearly reports are to be made to track progression of this plan.

San Diego Climate Action Plan. Goals Goals focused on emissions reductions (measured in MT CO2e, or metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent) through 2035. The baseline used for the action plan was based on a 2010 report in which the total emissions were 12,984,993 MT of CO2e. The projected emissions, if no changes were implemented, for the year 2020 is 14,124,690 MT of CO2e, the year 2030 projection is 15,856,604 MT of CO2e, and the year 2035 projection is 16,716,020 MT of CO2e. The climate action plan for the city of San Diego estimated reductions to 11,037, 244 MT of CO2e by the year 2020, 7,790,996 MT of CO2e by the year 2039, and 6,492,497 of MT of CO2e by the year 2035. Additionally, green job creation is one of the goals outlined in the action plan specifically for creating jobs in innovation and continuing the "green initiative" for the city. San Diego leaders emphasized job creation as the city was number seven on the 2017 U.S Clean Tech Leadership Index.

For the built environment and transportation sector, the three actions listed in the 2018 Climate action report exceeded the 2020 goal. The irrigation pumps did not produce any data, but the agriculture and conservation sector was seventy trees short of achieving the 14,000 trees planted goal. Water and waste water was able decrease the county's water consumption by 13% and the energy sector installed 38,510 home solar systems on existing houses. This is made possible in part by the Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE), which allows owners to pay for their solar installation on their property taxes.

The galleries are JSU's Johnson Hall gallery, College of Liberal Arts gallery, and JSU Downtown galleries. Exhibitions are student centered and assist to "Exposure+Experience=Lifelong Learning"(gallery mission) for student by including student work with the international and national artists' exhibitions. Exhibitions have ranged from painting created by musician George Clinton. JSU was the first university to exhibit his paintings. In September 2016, McCarthy collaborated with the Philadelphia Museum of Art and procured a gifted 25 piece permanent collection of Patrick Kelly (thanks to a donation from Bill and Bjorn Amelan). Spring of 2017, she collaborated with London's Belgravia Art Gallery to bring art created and signed by Nelson Mandela. McCarthy created JSU's Gallery1 Summer Art Institute and where JSU Department of Art Alumni taught art to 150 K-9 students. For two summers, she supervised and instructed art to over 200 K-9 students this included mulit-medium art to sewing instruction. McCarthy later procured an additional 250 plus pieces from the Patrick Kelly collection in the summer of 2017, it is housed the H.T. Sampson Archives.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Track%20spacing
Track spacing
Track spacing. The track spacing is the distance between the track centres of double-track railway lines. There are standard distances derived from the standard loading gauge in a country. For high-speed trains and in tighter curves that distance needs to be increased.

Track spacing
Track spacing. The track spacing is also called the center-to-center spacing to differentiate it from the edge-to-center spacing of a railway. These two values may be different depending on how signal masts are added to the overall track geometry.

Track spacing
Track spacing. Description The distance between the track centres makes a difference in cost and performance of a double-track line. The track centres can be as narrow and as cheap as possible, but maintenance must be done on the side. Signals for bi-directional working cannot be mounted between the tracks so must be mounted on the 'wrong' side of the line or on expensive signal bridges. Track centres are usually wider on high-speed lines, as pressure waves knock each other as high-speed trains pass.

Track spacing
Track spacing. Description The minimum track spacing can be derived from the loading gauge. The European Berne Gauge has a width of 3,150 mm. The minimal distance to structures on the side of the track is half of it but that is doubled again for double track lines. As the wagon can move within the rail gauge one adds 100 mm and with a possible displacement of tracks over time one adds some 250 mm as a security margin. This leads to a minim centre-to-center spacing of 3,500 mm. In fact, the first Prussian railways were built to that standard but it became soon apparent that it was too dangerous with some passengers having a hand or their head out of the window.

Track spacing
Track spacing. Description Narrow track centres might be or less. Narrow track centres may have to be widened on sharp curves to allow for long rail vehicles following the arc of the curve, and this increases a surveyor's workload. Widening a track centre to or so suits high-speed trains passing each other, and eliminates the need to widen the centres on sharp curves. Increasing width of track centres of or more makes it much easier to mount signals and overhead wiring structures.

Track spacing. Description In the United Kingdom, the early lines of the Great Western Railway were built to Brunel's broad gauge, which was also associated with a more generous loading gauge. This is still apparent along those lines which remain in use today: structures such as bridges and tunnels are larger, and the distances between opposite platform faces are larger.

Track spacing. Regulations The general standard in Germany and Switzerland had been to build new tracks with a centre-to-centre spacing of 3.80 m and a spacing of 4.50m in railway stations. Depending on the usage of the tracks it was still possible to build new double track lines with track centres of just 3.50 m. With the trains going faster over time the track centres were increased to 4.00 m on main lines.

Track spacing
Track spacing. Description The advent of high-speed trains required a stronger regulation which was regulated in Germany's EBO. The first update of 1982 increased the minimum track centre to 4.00 m allowing no more exceptions. But by 1991 it was replaced with a table taking into account the maximum speed of the trains on a track as well as the curvature. A distance of 4.00 m was considered enough for speeds up to 200 km/h. At 250 km/h the tracks have a centre-to-centre distance of 4.50 m (while the first tracks in the 1980s were built with a distance of 4.70 m).

This allows high-speed rail to have a centre-to-centre distance of just 4.20 m. Additionally, these lines are only allowed for high-speed passenger rail where no out-of-gauge loads are expected and the windows in the trains can not be opened.
