Northern California American Rainwater Catchment Systems Association

Relocalize Sacramento! is small group of activists studying current systems and learning what changes are needed for sustainability. We believe that relocalizing our communities is necessary to achieve sustainability: promoting local food, community design and consumer choices instead of the globalized, fossil fuel economy that's ruining the environment. We're engaged in: producing comprehensive sustainable standards for new development; looking at our waste, resource, and energy streams from a closed-loop perspective; promoting local food and water sources; supporting "green" construction and reuse of salvaged building materials; advocating for a smart and sustainable urban community footprint; discussing how to cope, and perhaps even thrive, in an energy-constrained future; and   envisioning a better Sacramento through networking with other groups, fostering connections, and building community.
