• Provide leadership to fully implement the County’s Climate Action Plan, including “going green” at the county level, transitioning the County’s entire fleet of vehicles and equipment to all-electric fuel sources using 100% renewable energy, which will reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GGEs) and move the County to a greener leadership space.

• Continue providing leadership to East Bay Community Energy (EBCE). EBCA is the East Bay’s public power agency, working together with local communities to increase renewable energy options across Alameda County and the greater East Bay Region. EBCE makes it possible to send more green energy to homes and businesses in Alameda County. EBCE is also working hard to tackle climate change by expanding our comprehensive green energy infrastructure (e.g. EV charging stations) and providing resources to local non-profits to deliver social and environmental services that provide green benefits. I am proud to serve as Board Chair of this body and I am committed to continuing its important work on behalf of our cities and our planet. Learn more at ebce.org.
