EXTENDED ABOUT US
Mission Statement
CASA is a community-wide coalition that will raise awareness, mobilize
community action, and facilitate implementation of programs to achieve the goal
of Alameda’s Local Action Plan for Climate Protection (to reduce Alameda’s
carbon emissions to 25% below 2005 levels by the year 2020) and to increase
community sustainability and well-being.
Vision Statement
By 2020 the City of Alameda will be a community whose actions are based on the
principles of sustainability and carbon neutrality. We will have met, or exceeded,
our community’s goal of reducing carbon emissions to 25 % below 2005 levels.
We will continue to challenge ourselves to conform to or surpass emissions goals
and standards established internationally, nationally, and by the State of
California.
Using less energy and resources, we will progressively become a more
environmentally conscious, resilient, abundant, and sustainable community
achieving for now and for future generations the highest feasible standards for
the well-being of Alameda’s residents, its bioregion, and the Earth as a whole.
