Building Environmental Community: St. Petersburg, Florida

Working for a better way of life in St. Pete

We hope you'll join us in making a better way of life for St. Pete. We're working with the City of St. Petersburg and Council of Neighborhood Associations to implement a Green Cities Plan that will enhance our community for a brighter future. Click here to check out Sierra Club's Green Cities campaign to learn how you can help make St. Pete a healthier, more beautiful, more energy-efficient place to live, play, and visit. If you're interested in our new Tampa Green Cities program, click here.

Green Cities is a plan to establish the City of St. Petersburg as a leader in Florida in setting policies, guidelines, and goals, and strategic actions that will result in:

  • a more sustainable community
  • the use of renewable resources
  • energy, water and cost savings through the construction, operation and maintenance of high performance buildings and landscapes
  • the procurement of environmentally preferred products, materials and services
  • increased recycling and materials reuse
  • historical preservation
  • waste reduction at its source
  • healthier and more productive work environments
  • less local and global adverse environmental impacts
  • reduced City liability
  • minimized future disposal infrastructure needs
