The City of San Rafael and MCEP Renew RN Grant
The City of San Rafael and Marin Energy and Climate Partnership renewed their grant of $50,000 to fund RN's Outreach Coordinator position. We will be able to continue helping Marin’s cities and towns implement their climate action plan residential reduction goals and further their outreach efforts for climate adaptation. MCEP was founded in 2007 as a partnership of the eleven Marin cities and towns, the County of Marin, the Transportation Authority of Marin, Marin Clean Energy and the Marin Municipal Water District. Its goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in government operations and in our communities, including developing greenhouse gas inventories and climate action plans for member cities. Since residents are responsible for 60% of Marin's GHG emissions, municipalities look to Resilient Neighborhoods for help in motivating residents to reduce their carbon emissions.
