Contra Costa County Climate Leaders
The Contra Costa County Climate Leaders ("4CL") program is a network assisting the County and its 19 cities to inform, support, and encourage the measurement and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
Green Business Program
The Green Business Program distinguishes small businesses that protect, preserve, and sustain our environment. The Program partners with local environmental agencies and utility providers to offer incentives and verify participating businesses conserve energy and water, minimize waste, prevent pollution, and shrink their carbon footprints.
New Leaf Collaborative
The City's award-winning partnership with New Leaf Collaborative, Martinez Unified School District ("MUSD"), and Republic Services provides a comprehensive education and outreach program at each school in the MUSD. The goal of the program is to increase eco-literacy and inspire the sustainability leaders of tomorrow through fun, interactive lesson plans.
