San Jacinto, situated in Riverside County, California, faces a range of climate-related challenges, including extreme heat, wildfires, drought, and air pollution.

Adaptation strategies focus on preparing for and responding to the impacts of climate change. These include water conservation measures, emergency preparedness plans, urban forestry initiatives, and infrastructure upgrades to enhance resilience...
