Registration is now open for the Central Coast Sustainability Summit, which will run from 8am-5pm on October 18 in UCSB's Corwin Pavilion. At this year's summit, keynote speakers will inspire agencies and thought leaders to create a shared vision and accountability for sustainability efforts in California's central coast. The theme for this year's summit is Decarbonizing to meet the Climate Challenge. Breakout sessions will address topics related to existing building electrification, transportation decarbonization, waste management, climate, food, and community resiliency, and collaboration. The event will bring together key players from local institutions and government agencies to build collaborations for a sustainable central coast.
The summit is planned by partners from the cities of Goleta, Santa Barbara, Carpinteria, Ventura, the County of Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo, Ventura County Regional Energy Alliance, and the Community Environmental Council, and the University of California, Santa Barbara. Organizers seek to inspire and sustain action on complex environmental and economic issues in our region.
The event brings together elected officials, staff, faculty and interested parties from local governments and organizations to discuss common sustainability issues, share best practices, and seek partners. The 2023 Central Coast Sustainability Summit will also feature an Electric Vehicle (EV) Showcase proudly sponsored by the Central Coast Clean Cities Coalition. The EV Showcase will include a display of electric vehicles, e-bikes, and advanced transportation technologies from local agencies, and act as an opportunity for attendees to engage about transitioning to alternative fuel vehicles!
