MISSION: To provide and maintain the most desirable environment for the community.

The plan is called a Climate Protection Plan. It consists of 5 steps.

Step 1: Inventory your baseline emissions
Step 2: Set a reduction goal
Step 3: Create a reduction plan
Step 4: Implement the reduction plan
Step 5: Monitor results

You can create a Climate protection Plan for you and your family by going to the following link: What's my Carbon Footprint? The City also asks you to pledge to reduce CO2, by emailing us at maintenance@newark.org. Click on these two documents; Community Greenhouse Emissions and Government Greenhouse Emissions to see the City's emission inventory. This is step 1 of the Climate Protection Plan.

Thanks to a grant from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, the City recently completed two reports to assist the City in quantifying current carbon emission reduction measures and researching potential future carbon emission reduction projects. The first report, Lighting Fixture Replacement and Aquatic Center Energy Saving Analysis, discusses the progress of two lighting retrofit projects and researches energy source alternatives and efficiency measures for the Silliman Family Aquatic Center. The second report, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Summary Report, details the feasibility of converting the City's fleet to CNG or other alternative fuel vehicles. The information contained in both of these reports is frequently reviewed and updated as the City learns of new technologies and opportunities to save money, increase energy efficiency, and reduce the effects of harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
