We have big goals that we can only accomplish with the help of volunteers like you!
We've already had two huge wins in 2021!
In April, after years of dedicated advocacy by 350 Sacramento volunteers and partners, SMUD approved their 2030 Carbon Zero Plan. This is the most ambitious plan of this kind by any large utility in the nation, and will result in closing two gas-fired power plants!
On June 1st, after a campaign spearheading the Mayors' Commission on Climate Change's Year 1 priorities, the Sacramento City Council approved an ordinance requiring Electrification of all new construction!
In the last year we hired our first staff, helped pass climate emergency resolutions in the city, county, and SMUD, and develop strong recommendations from the Mayors' Climate Commission.
And there's lots more work to do! We started our Student Environmental Activist Training program and already have almost 100 students signed up, we want to hire more staff, and we are working closely with the local governments on climate initiatives. We need help from our dedicated community members, like yourself, to continue doing this work.
