Pacific Environment's mission is to harness people power to regenerate ports and end ship pollution, transforming port infrastructure to achieve zero-emission shipping. The organization focuses on transforming ports from pollution hotspots into thriving hubs of sustainable economic development and environmental protection. It aims to unite strategic objectives with policy goals across local, state, federal, and international levels to eliminate the global shipping industry's reliance on fossil fuels.
The Pacific Environment Grant program is designed to support multi-level organizations, including community-based groups, environmental justice organizations, and broader environmental organizations, with a preference for those working directly in communities impacted by ship and port pollution. The grant seeks projects that align with objectives such as passing policies for mandatory zero-emission pathways for ships, stopping the fossil fuel build-out in ports, and securing zero emission commitments from key stakeholders. Projects can vary widely but may include community building, capacity building, advocacy, education of policymakers, and grassroots power-building, among other strategies. Organizations can apply for grants ranging from $15,000 to $150,000, with allowances for additional staff or contractor expenses within the grant budget.
