Marin County Hills Working together to reduce the impacts of climate change

Welcome to the Marin Climate & Energy Partnership

We work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in our government operations and in our Marin communities. We’ve developed greenhouse gas inventories and climate action plans for our member cities, and we collaborate on a wide range of greenhouse gas reduction programs, such as green building regulations, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, energy efficiency and renewable energy projects, and zero waste initiatives.

Our Climate Goals

California’s goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 40% below 1990 levels by the year 2030.  See how your community plans to achieve that goal.

Our Mission

The mission of the Marin Climate & Energy Partnership is to create a countywide partnership that allows partner members to work collaboratively, share resources, and secure funding to:
1) discuss, study and implement overarching policies and programs, ranging from emission reduction strategies to adaptation, contained in each agency’s Climate Action Plan; and
2) collect data and report on progress in meeting each partner member’s individual greenhouse gas emission targets.

Making Progress

Marin communities have already met their GHG reduction goals for 2020 and are about half way to meeting the statewide goal to reduce emissions 40% below 1990 levels by the year 2030. Most of our reductions over the past 15 years have come from cleaner electricity and cars. We’ll all need to do more if we’re going to achieve our next milestone.
