Mission Statement

The Oakland Green Team is dedicated to supporting the creation of a more environmentally sustainable community and improving the quality of life in Oakland. Our mission is to create a community that understands its environmental assets and resources and will act to protect and enhance them.

The Oakland Green Team is a collaborative effort in which volunteers work with local businesses, residents, schools, municipal representatives and other community organizations to foster community involvement in reaching sustainable environmental and fiscally responsible goals. We review, evaluate and implement sustainable initiatives to enhance the public welfare of both current and future generations by creating a more sustainable community.
