What is the Organization Challenge?

From corporate companies to congregations to non-profit organizations to little league teams, all groups are welcome to join the City’s Organization Challenge and commit to reducing their greenhouse gas emissions.

The Organization Challenge is a friendly competition to encourage individuals of Chicago-based organizations to collectively achieve more and do more to reduce their carbon footprint.

Representatives will simply create an account for their organization and encourage members of their team to go online and take the $800 Savings Challenge, a recommended list of simple energy efficient actions that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and save up to $823 each year in household costs.

The top three groups with the highest percentage of Challenge takers will receive special recognition in local media and other fabulous environmentally-themed surprises and special gifts.
