The Blue City Network is a certification system that recognizes cities, towns, and counties that demonstrate their communities’ commitment to healthy waterways and oceans. Participants gain access to proven resources and blueprints provided by top environmental nonprofits, cities, and governmental agencies. Upon certification, participants become part of the Blue City Network, a coalition of communities from around the world that collaborate in their ongoing quest to become true champions of the environment. Established by Project-O, a 501c3 ocean conservation organization, the Blue City Certification program provides a data-driven approach to assessing communities’ efforts towards protecting waterways and oceans. The intent of this program is to establish a network of cities, towns, and counties that are willing to implement, collaborate, and share information on jurisdictional sustainability programs across four Solution Areas: Waste Minimization, Climate Protection and Resilience, Water Quality and Efficiency, and Healthy Ecosystems.
