Green Riverside

"When I appointed the Clean & Green Task Force, in 2005, I asked them the create a report on how to become a clean, green, more sustainable city. The result of excellent work by the Task Force was these simple guidelines: Save Water, Keep it Clean, Make it Solar, Make it Shady, Clean the Air, Save Fuel, Make it Smart, and Build Green."

Ronald O. Loveridge, Mayor

Californians recycled a record 7.6 billion beverage containers between January and June 2008 raising the six-month California Refund Value (CRV) recycling rate to 76 percent. The jump is an increase of nearly 600 million beverage containers over the same period in 2007 when the recycling rate was 72 percent.

Looking to install multiple water and/or energy efficiency at one time? Start here.

This program takes a whole-house approach to the energy and water efficiency rebates that RPU already offers, providing a “one stop shop” for those who intend to apply for more than one efficiency rebate at one time.

By participating in at least two energy and/or water efficiency programs at one time, you can make your home more efficient and receive higher rebates than if you were using just one program.

The Whole House Rebate Program was created for homeowners who are in the process of making major home improvements and for those making property investment improvements.
