Partners
CCI develops working models that are replicable and scalable to address climate change while producing environmental, economic and social equity benefits. Some CCI programs and projects are fully managed and operated by CCI staff, contractors and consultants. In other cases, CCI partners with government agencies, academic institutions, businesses, and mission-aligned organizations to advance its work. Within California, CCI is actively involved in policy development at the local and state levels and helps build coalitions to advance land-based climate solutions in the public sector.
Strategic Partners
Carbon cycle solutions are working models of practices and economic value chains that can produce food, fiber, flora or fuel in climate-beneficial ways. CCI strategic partners include Conservation Districts, USDA NRCS, the Marin Carbon Project, Fibershed, the Colorado State University COMET Team, the Chico State University Center for Regenerative Agriculture and Resilient Systems, and the California Polytechnic State University Center for Sustainability.
