San Francisco Carbon Fund

The City has established the San Francisco Carbon Fund to provide support for new initiatives to further reduce our community’s carbon footprint and add value to our neighborhoods by enhancing public green spaces and the urban forest.

The Carbon Fund gives visitors, businesses, residents, and city government the opportunity to mitigate carbon pollution generated by their activities (e.g., air travel, auto use, hotel stays) while investing in the sustainability of San Francisco’s future. To date, the fund has supported two local projects in San Francisco: a commercial fuel station that sells waste grease biodiesel, DogPatch Biofuels; and an ongoing urban orchard planting program.
