Summit Series

CEMTF workshops and summits are all structured to engage the community on regenerative climate policies.  In 2020, we have delivered five, 4-hour workshops that delved into a variety of topics including:
• How do we achieve an environmental just and regenerative future?
• What policies can we promote to create a fossil free Bay Area?
• How can the Bay Area increase green infrastructure to include all-electric buildings, transportation, and100% renewable energy?
• What tools do we need to create sustainable production and consumption of resources?
• What actions can we take together to actively advocate for the changes we've identified? 
You can watch the recordings of these summits in our resources.

Convening Partners

From inception, CEMTF has been committed to building our organizational structure, priorities, and strategic plan around impacted voices and environmental leaders in the Bay Area. We’ve been intentional in reaching out to diverse organizations and stakeholders to participate in our monthly open meetings. We’ve also hosted two community listening sessions: a NGO, activist, grassroots listening session and an elected official listening session. These allowed us to better understand these group’s priorities and obstacles in creating climate action. 

There has been immense value in convening partners across sectors that normally work in silos. It’s led to more collaborative and innovative ideas and created a stronger coalition for actions.

Convening Partner Events Include:
• NGO, Activist, Grassroots Listening Session
• Elected Official Listening Session
• Climate Summit Series
• Concerts for the Climate Series
• Monthly Open Meetings
