Ashland Climate Collaborative

We are a hub for community collaboration — to reduce our climate impact and build a more equitable and resilient Ashland. We empower, energize, and engage Ashland to accelerate meaningful and scalable climate solutions.

Action Teams and Networks

To help the City meet our climate goals, we created action teams centered on the biggest impact areas.

Reduce home emissions by replacing natural gas (methane) equipment with clean energy and improve energy efficiency.

Reduce in-town car trips and make our town safer to bike, walk, and roll.

Compost food scraps to reduce landfill emissions and support local farms.

Conserve water and transition to drought-tolerant landscapes.

Form neighborhood climate action clubs to work on solutions together.

The Ashland Climate Collaborative Takes a Deep Dive into Local Energy Policy in a New Series of Articles

The City of Ashland is making headway toward reducing costs and improving the quality of life for Ashlanders who are cost-burdened while also moving our community along the path to resilience and net zero.

We’re launching this Ashland Energy Policy blog series to help inform the conversation over the coming weeks and months.

Article 1. Welcome to Our New Ashland Energy Policy Series: The City is getting ready to up its game in energy conservation. We’ve got ideas!

Article 2. Let’s Take Some Bold Steps: Housing costs are a challenge in Ashland – the right energy policies can help.

Article 3. City Council Moves Forward on Energy Programs: The December 3 Ashland City Council meeting was the scene of a rare “win-win-win” lovefest.

Bike Bus

Imagine a group of kids on bikes pedaling a fixed route to school, picking up more mini cyclists as they pass various “stops” — just like a gas-powered school bus! Learn about bike buses, including routes and schedules.
