Dear John,

At a time when national leaders are working to dismantle climate protections, silence scientists, and halt renewable energy projects, the urgency of Acterra’s mission has never been clearer.

Climate denial may dominate in Washington, but here in the Bay Area, Acterra is building a healthier, more sustainable future for our families, friends and neighbors, while proving that local action can spark global change.


Acterra is advancing practical, local solutions; electrifying homes and vehicles ([link removed] building resilient food ([link removed] systems, and educating the next generation of climate leaders ([link removed] While others may deny the science, we are proving that change is possible, one household, one neighborhood, one city at a time.

For 55 years, Acterra has been a trusted community leader in advancing bold climate solutions. Today, our work is more vital than ever.

Your support fuels:

Beneficial Electrification: Helping households transition away from fossil fuels by installing heat pump HVAC systems ([link removed] efficient water heaters, induction cooktops ([link removed] and EV charging infrastructure. Through workshops and one-on-one coaching, we make it simple for families to go all-electric.

Sustainable Food Systems: Tackling climate change through what we eat. Our Zero Foodprint partnership helps local farms restore soil health, while community programs ([link removed] reduce food waste and promote plant-forward diets.
Education: Inspiring the next generation of climate leaders ([link removed] through field trips, school programs, and immersive experiences.

Advocacy: Mobilizing residents and amplifying community voices ([link removed] to push for strong local and regional climate policies, from building electrification ordinances to zero-emission transportation initiatives.
