\n\t\t\tAbout VCCF’s Environmental Initiative\t<\/h3>\n\t

Ventura County blev af Washington Post identificeret som det hurtigst opvarmende amt i det kontinentale USA med en gennemsnitlig lufttemperatur, der er steget 4,68 grader Fahrenheit siden slutningen af 1800-tallet, dobbelt s\u00e5 meget som det globale gennemsnit. I 2021 identificerede Ventura County Civic Alliance desuden t\u00f8rke og klimaforandringer som de st\u00f8rste trusler mod vores samfund. Det blev afg\u00f8rende, at Ventura County Community Foundation tog fat p\u00e5 klimaforandringerne gennem et milj\u00f8initiativ.<\/p>\n\t

VCCF har tilsluttet sig Community Foundation Climate Collaborative som medlem af Great Pacific Regional Action Network. Denne gruppe fokuserer p\u00e5 krydsfeltet mellem klima, \u00f8konomisk retf\u00e6rdighed og overgangen til ren energi; leverer \u00f8jeblikkelig n\u00f8d- og krisehj\u00e6lp, samtidig med at den tager fat p\u00e5 de grundl\u00e6ggende \u00e5rsager og st\u00f8tter langsigtet modstandsdygtighed; flytter magt til samfund, der er blevet udelukket fra vigtige beslutningstagningsomr\u00e5der; og opbygger alliancer og kapacitetsopbygning for nonprofitorganisationer.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tCentral Coast Climate Collaborative\n\t\t\t\t

in 2025, VCCF joined the Central Coast Climate Collaborative (4C), an organizing platform, uniting local governments, communities, nonprofits, businesses, academia, and Tribes to collaboratively advance climate equity and resilience across California’s Central Coast region.<\/p>\n

4C believes that climate change is the greatest threat to humanity and all living beings, with economic and racial disparities exacerbating its impact on vulnerable communities. We must unite to address these shared challenges, recognizing that our diverse people, cultures, economies, and geography provide a unique strength. Effective solutions depend on partnership, collaboration, and transparency across organizations and communities. While urgency is critical, building trust and overcoming barriers at a collaborative pace is essential to creating lasting support systems and in the long run, the only viable solutions for society are just and equitable solutions.<\/p>\n

The Central Coast faces interconnected challenges, including ecosystem degradation, economic inequality, and social divisions, all exacerbated by climate threats such as sea level rise, wildfires, drought, and decreasing water supply. These issues often cross existing boundaries, making regional collaboration essential. 4C addresses these challenges by uniting local governments, communities, nonprofits, businesses, academia, and tribes to advance climate solutions and build resilience. It serves as an information hub and capacity builder, tracking funding opportunities, offering training, and hosting convenings to connect stakeholders across the region. Through these efforts, 4C works to promote equitable access to climate solutions and advocates for the unique needs of the Central Coast.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tMilj\u00f8m\u00e6ssig lyttetur\n\t\t\t\t

VCCF gik i gang med en Environmental Listening Tour i april 2021, efter at 76 procent af donorerne fra en fokusgruppe havde identificeret milj\u00f8et som et af deres to vigtigste interesseomr\u00e5der for deres donationer. If\u00f8lge Giving USA var det nationale gennemsnit af bidrag til milj\u00f8et i 2022 3%, sammenlignet med 2,5% procent af VCCF's \u00e5rlige bidrag, der st\u00f8ttede milj\u00f8et i 2022.<\/p>\n

Til dato har over 50 organisationer med programmer i Ventura County med fokus p\u00e5 milj\u00f8sp\u00f8rgsm\u00e5l, fra milj\u00f8retf\u00e6rdighed, bevarelse og genopretning, genopretning og forebyggelse af skovbrande, naturressourcer, ungdomsuddannelse, adgang til f\u00f8devarer fra jord til bord, udvikling af arbejdsstyrken og meget mere deltaget og fortalt om deres behov, og hvor filantropi bedst kan hj\u00e6lpe med at udfylde hullerne gennem Environmental Listening Tour.<\/p>\n

Ventura County Community Foundation har m\u00f8dtes med over 50 forskellige lokale milj\u00f8organisationer og partnere i lokalsamfundet via Zoom og personlige bes\u00f8g for at l\u00e6re om deres form\u00e5l og behov, som kan st\u00f8ttes gennem filantropi.<\/p>\n
