ABOUT COOL CITIES DELAWARE

Delaware Local Governments MapCool Cities is a national initiative that encourages local governments to develop policies and programs that promote energy sustainability, environmental stewardship and climate protection. 

Cool Cities are villages, towns and cities that endorse the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement
Download our Factsheet.

Cool Counties are counties that endorse the U.S. Counties Climate Stabilization Declaration.

Delaware's 57 villages, towns and cities represent 30% our state's population and  70% of Delawareans live in unincorporated counties.  Improving energy and environmental policies on the local level can dramatically improve our environmental quality.

To date, more than 1,000 cities across the country have endorsed the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement and 42 counties have endorsed the U.S. Counties Climate Stabilization Declaration.  Delaware's Cool Cities and Counties include: 

       Newark, Delaware


Cool Cities Delaware provides outreach to the public, professionals and local governments to encourage energy sustainability, environmental stewardship and climate protection at the local level.  Through the efforts of volunteers and local governments, Cool Cities Delaware  can assist all local governments in the state, large and small, to embark on the path of sustainability, reduce their energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, and protect the environment while saving money and creating local jobs.
