The CSC Pathway | Coordinating With CEC | Getting Started With CEC

County Actions | City Actions | Town Actions | Village Actions

Choose your actions to get certified & fight climate change.

The Climate Smart Communities framework is categorized by 10 Pledge Elements (PEs). To be successfully certified, your town must complete two Mandatory Actions under the first Pledge Element. Next, you should decide whether your town will aim to complete three Priority Actions for bronze certification, or six for silver certification. You can also review Optional Actions to determine whether your town is ready to tackle any now, or will revisit after getting certified.
