Save energy, water and money
Climate Action Counts is a statewide effort mobilizing Californians to take everyday climate actions at home and in their neighborhoods. Take the pledge and help fight climate change by saving energy, water and money and more!
Use a smart thermostat (or adjust your thermostat), conserve water and capture savings.
Fixing leaky faucets and installing low-flow fixtures can save you hundreds on water bills and reduce the strain on local water sources.
