Sonoma Climate Mobilization
Solidifying Sonoma County’s commitment to mobilizing an emergency response commensurate with the scale of the climate crisis.
RCPA has developed a Climate Mobilization Strategy to support the resolution declaring a Climate Emergency that was adopted by our Board of Directors in September 2019.
The Strategy was adopted by the RCPA Board of Directors on March 8, 2021 and RCPA staff is working to develop funding and implementation plans for several priority policy projects.

At Home
Sonoma County residents have the option to purchase 100% Renewable, local energy through the Sonoma Clean Power EverGreen program. Choosing EverGreen eliminates nearly all your greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy use. Healdsburg residents can choose the Green Rate.
BayREN Home+ offers cash rebates for your home improvements, plus certified contractors and support every step of the way. You can start by speaking with a Home Energy Advisor or take an online home energy evaluation to learn what changes can help lower your energy bills.
At Work
Businesses can lead the transition to vehicle electrification by ensuring employees and customers have easy access to EV charging infrastructure. The Sonoma Coast Incentive Project provides rebates for electric vehicle (EV) charger purchase and installation costs.
The Sonoma Emergency Ride Home program will reimburse rides home in cases of a qualify- ing emergency for anyone who works in Sonoma County and uses an alternative transportation option, such as carpooling, vanpooling, public transit, bicycling, or walking.
Local Government
Many municipalities have switched their electric accounts to Sonoma Clean Power’s Evergreen 100% renewable electricity.
The Shift Low Carbon Transportation Action Plan lists a number of strategies that municipalities can take to shift transportation choices away from single occupant vehicles towards cleaner, healthier, and more efficient modes of transportation.
