Description
How does your state report on sustainability efforts? Learn about the tools the State of California uses to collect, analyze and report on energy and water efficiency, greenhouse gas emissions, electric vehicles, climate change adaptation, decarbonization and other sustainability mandates and policies. California has used Sustainability Roadmaps and Facility Data Sheets the past thirteen years to track and report progress toward meeting legislative, executive order and policy requirements and to plan how targets will be met. Sustainability Roadmaps are shared on public websites along with metrics and results. This helps motivate state agencies to improve and work toward successful results. Can your state benefit from a similar program?
