The Bay Area Air District today announced $4,822,770 in funding to SAFETRANS Transportation Inc. to deploy electric school buses serving special education students across Santa Clara County. The grant will support the purchase of 14 zero-emission buses and 11 charging stations, helping to electrify transportation services for some of the region's most vulnerable students.

The Air District is offering grants of up to $2,500 to public K-12 school teachers as well as student and parent leaders to increase understanding of air quality and climate issues in school communities. 

The Air District is offering grants of up to $25,000 to nonprofit partners and community-based organizations to support and sponsor community-based solutions that address air pollution while also helping reduce our global climate impact. 

Earth Day was founded in 1970 as a day of education about environmental issues. It is now a global celebration to raise public awareness of pollution. 

The Air District is partnering with MCE and the Transportation Authority of Marin to launch Drive Clean Bay Area, a consumer education program which offers a group purchase plan to lower the cost of electric vehicles for Bay Area customers.
