Blue Planet Foundation | Blue Planet Foundation

Blue Planet Foundation is a community organization that’s changing the conversation about clean energy by creating sustainable models in Hawaii. We offer community and school education on clean energy and electric vehicle/clean transportation information. Through our education programs, we're educating and empowering youth to become leaders and help find climate solutions. To catalyze the needed policy changes on clean energy and climate action, Blue Planet Foundation aims to empower youth across Hawaii to more fully engage in advocacy activities through its Climate Crew program. Since 2015, Blue Planet has hosted our Student Energy Summit that educates and motivates students to find clean energy solutions to issues within their own communities. Blue Planet will be hosting the Student Energy Summit in person again! This year’s conference will take place on Sunday, January 16, 2022, at the ‘Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach. Attendees will learn the latest in climate science & policy, youth organizing, and engage in a CO2 impact simulation. The Summit’s focus will be centered on making the youth voices of Hawaiʻi heard through building a collective roadmap to share with our state and local leaders before the 2022 legislative session. We're clearing the path for 100% clean transportation. Transportation accounts for almost two-thirds of our fossil fuel use. That's why moving Hawaii beyond oil also means cleaner transportation options. The road to 100% clean transportation starts now. The Electric Vehicle (EV) Expert Certification Program provides dealership sales associates with the knowledge and skills needed to be successful in the EV marketplace and gives customers the confidence of knowing they will have the best possible EV buying experience. Advancing Sustainable Transportation in Hawaii The mission of STCH is to be a leading advocate and educational resource for sustainable transportation in Hawaii.
