Climate Pollution Reduction Grants (CPRG) Work Group 

The CPRG Work Group was formed to work collaboratively on regional climate action planning as part of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Climate Pollution Reduction Grants (CPRG) Program. The region was awarded a $1M Planning Grant to develop two regional climate action plans that will set ambitious targets and outline strategies to decrease greenhouse gas emissions across Santa Clara County and San Benito County, while prioritizing low-income and disadvantaged communities and workforce development.
