About Sustainability Week | Schedule | Sponsors | Coalition | Contact

Join us for Sustainability Week Oct 22-28, 2022 in and around Walnut Creek. We all need to make more sustainable choices in our lives to avert the growing environmental and climate crises. We hold this 2nd annual ‘Sustainability Week’ to aid in that effort.

Join us for a week of environmental action. A series of events, including over 25 in-person or virtual sessions, will run from October 22nd – 28th. This week will bring together professional organizations, environmental entertainers, and committed volunteer activists to educate, inspire, and foster opportunities for future collaboration. We will learn how to increase our personal efforts and to energize our communities to become healthier and more sustainable.
