Our Story
Sustainable Contra Costa is a community of citizens, educators, innovators, and organizations designing and building pathways to ecologically sustainable, economically vibrant, and socially just communities for all. Together, we help thousands of people each year learn to live more sustainably and make changes to save water and energy, reduce waste, grow food, and build healthy, resilient communities.
All of our work is guided by the 10 One Planet Living principles (watch video What Is One Planet Living?).
Our History
Since its inception in 2007, SCOCO has grown into one of the broadest reaching nonprofits in Contra Costa, providing tools and resources that help people take action. SCOCO was founded in 2007 by Robert Joe, Tina King Neuhausel, Marsha Golangco & Sheila Hill.
In 2018 we celebrated our 10th anniversary with a wonderful party under the redwoods in Orinda.
