The Office of Sustainability leads the City's sustainability initiatives, including the development and implementation of the Sustainability and Climate Action Plan (S/CAP). We coordinate across City departments to implement the S/CAP goals and key actions and work to engage the community on these programs and initiatives.

We also work with cities and organizations across the country to monitor and apply municipal sustainability priorities and strategies. This includes coordinating with other local jurisdictions, reporting on our greenhouse gas emissions and sustainability progress, and monitoring and applying for state, federal, and local funding opportunities.

If you have any questions about our office or any of our programs, or would like to collaborate, please reach out to sustainability@paloalto.gov.
