Here are the other independent local organizations that network with Sustainable Novato.
Sustainable Marin is the center of a network of community-based, all-volunteer, non-profit groups at the neighborhood, city and town levels advocating for more emphasis on sustainability in government, business and everyday life. Each of the groups have a slightly different emphasis, depending of the particular character and challenges each community may face. But all have a common focus on working constructively and cooperatively with all the best ideas and newest approaches that experience may provide.

SSR has helped City of San Rafael devise a promising community climate action plan, provided leadership in a widely praised green buildings ordinance, and has nosted numerous civic forums on climate change, zero waste, low-carbon transportation, electric vehicles and city planning.
Sustainable Fairfax has shown the way toward town permaculture with its pesticides-free, water-stingy demonstration garden, its grassroots projects on water conservation, green energy and zero waste, its political and civic leadership, its fun “Streets for People” fetes, craft fairs, and charity benefits.
