The official page of the City of Portland's Sustainability Office.
This page provides information about ways to live "green" in the City of Portland. Reduce waste, recycle, compost, prevent storm water pollution, garden, and enjoy nearly 1,100 acres of recreational open space right in the city. Save gas by enjoying the amazing natural resources we have right here!
The Sustainability Office undertakes initiatives designed to make Portland a vibrant, environmentally friendly community now and into the future. We collaborate with all departments to increase the efficiency of City operations and seek innovative approaches to improve municipal services. We partner with community organizations, citizens, and businesses working to conserve energy, reduce waste, and preserve our natural resources. We promote actions that will make Portland resilient in the face of a changing climate.
