Woodside

Our town is working to help our residents and businesses reduc e their energy, water and fuel use, and to reduce disposal into our limited landfill capacity. This effort can reduce costs, conserve resources and ultimately reduce pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. The following charts show the trends of use of these resources within the geographic boundary of our city.

Our residents and businesses can contribute to these efforts by updating energy and water fixtures, and appliances to more energy and/or water efficient models. Transition to more renewable sources of electricity, and less use of natural gas will also contribute to local and countywide goals. Finally, public and active transportation choices will reduce emissions from fuel and contribute to a healthier lifestyle.
