Sacramento, Calif.
California is in the grip of a record-breaking drought, leaving many in the Golden State wondering how to deal with climate change.
Kate Meis is coming up with answers, one community at a time. She started CivicSpark, a program that places AmeriCorps members with local governments throughout the state to work on energy projects. In the program’s first year, members helped municipalities work with homeowners and businesses to reduce energy use, promote public transit, and streamline the process for getting permits to install solar-energy systems.
