  • Our Mission

    Cool OC provide programs that educate the community on creating planet-friendly, disaster-resilient, and community-rich blocks within Orange County. Together with community partners, we bring together residents, businesses, NGO's, students, and government to make measurable reductions in carbon emissions to mitigate the increasing impacts of climate change. For disadvantaged communities, who are most impacted by the effects of climate change, we offer services, education, and resources to create resilient households that are equipped to deal with extreme weather impacts and prepare for disasters.
