about 350 Silicon Valley
we are stronger together.
350 Silicon Valley is a volunteer-led nonprofit dedicated to fighting for climate justice. We work under the umbrella of 350 Bay Area, 501(c)(3). We mobilize residents of Santa Clara and San Mateo counties for a speedy and just transition away from fossil fuels to 100% renewable energy.
​
We formed in 2013, in informal affiliation with the international organization 350.org. We collaborate with many partners on divestment and reducing the carbon footprint of municipalities to achieve a clean energy future with racial, economic, and environmental justice.
Our vision is a vibrant world where climate justice prevails
