Our mission is to build on-the-ground momentum to reverse the threat of the climate crisis. We transform the systems that fuel it. We safeguard the community from its impacts. We lead, we partner, we act. And every day, we move people to create a more resilient California Central Coast.

Delivering on our mission, we are forging local and state solutions like never before with unrelenting, focused and inclusive climate action. We are advancing rapid and equitable solutions to the climate crisis, including ambitious zero carbon goals, drawdown of excess carbon, and protection against the impacts of climate change. Community Environmental Council (CEC), the Central Coast and California are leading our nation and world toward a zero carbon future.
