In these times of uncertain energy policy and increasing environmental degradation due to the extraction and burning of fossil fuels, an exciting alternative source of energy is solar power. Here in sunny Marin, harnessing solar energy will not only be good for the environment and your pocketbook, but it promises to highlight your home, building or business as a model for alternative energy solutions throughout the Bay Area and beyond.
Our Vision is to move the communities of Fairfax and Marin County from a reliance on centrally located, costly, polluting power plants that are dependent on fossil and nuclear fuels, toward decentralized, locally-owned, renewable energy sources. Sustainable Fairfax supports individual efforts to go solar as well as the development of a more responsible countywide energy policy. In 2001 we produced a series of Solar Forums designed to educate the public about current energy policy, introduce ways to conserve energy at home and demystify the process and technology behind wind and solar power.
