CEC has a strong track record of educating the public about environmental issues and advocating for sustainable policies. Volunteers started the group after the Burlingame City Council adopted its initial Climate Action Plan in 2009, which many CEC members helped shape. CEC attained nonprofit status in 2010 and, in 2016, the organization incorporated and attained 501(c)3 status.
