"Our focus is to reduce carbon emissions by bringing communities in the Monterey area together, through education and grassroots initiatives"

Program Highlights:

Monterey Bay Offset Fund:

In the past, companies have purchased offsets or supported offset projects that were not local because a local alternative did not exist.  Now it does.  Our goal is to create a sustainable approach that starts with reducing local carbon emissions, invests in local solar installations, and ends with local job creation.<Learn more><Volunteer>

Waste Free Schools:

Green Project Award Winner! The Offset Project has helped to implement waste reduction and composting programs at a number of Peninsula schools in an effort to divert school lunchroom waste. The Waste Free Schools program has established a comprehensive recycling protocol for schools, developed campus composting areas, and integrated environmental stewardship into the school day.The results of the program have been dramatic: at Forest Grove Elementary in Pacific Grove in just the first year the amount of lunchroom waste diverted out of the landfill has average 50% compared to the year before. <Learn more> <Volunteer>
