CEC's Mission & Our Progress

CEC’s mission is to identify, advocate and raise awareness about the most pressing environmental issues that affect the Santa Barbara region. CEC’s goal is to change entire systems that were built up over the last 100 years, and to do it in a way that creates jobs, saves money, and strengthens the economy. Today, CEC is focusing more time and energy on empowering individuals and creating a widespread ‘clean energy’ movement.

Our History

Since 1970, CEC has led the Santa Barbara region – and at times California and the nation – in creative solutions to some of the toughest environmental problems. Read about how CEC has made history and evolved with the environmental movement.
