The IF board has recently decided to provide support for the Pajaro Valley Climate Action organization and its project: Regeneration/Regeneración: Responding to Climate Change Together.
The commitment of Regeneración to justice and inclusion is attracting people throughout the Pajaro Valley to engage in conversation and participate in projects designed to help our community move together toward a resilient carbon free future
The project helps the Pajaro Valley (PV) community adapt and flourish as the climate changes by advocating for a fair economy, planning for a healthy ecosystem, and guiding the community to a sustainable way of life.

In 2018, the project will conduct interviews with PVs mostly Latino low income population about reducing the causes and adjusting to the impacts of climate change in their daily lives. The goal is to learn what projects would inspire the most participation and have the greatest local benefit.
The findings will guide the next projects that Climate Action will undertake. The project needs funds to analyze and publicize the results of the survey and to fund staff salaries.
