What is Napa RISE?
The climate crisis is no longer imminent. It is here. Coming together as sustainable winegrowing leaders is no longer optional, it is imperative.
Napa growers and vintners must play an increasingly active role in building social equity, conserving natural resources, reducing and drawing down GHG emissions and creating more resilient vineyards, businesses and communities.
Our region and wines capture global attention, meaning our leadership can be an outsized force for change. This is a changemaking convening to enable the Napa County wine industry to leverage its powerful platform and set a standard for sustainability and climate action that galvanizes the global wine industry.

Sustainable Services & Solutions
Our issues are not siloed and our solutions can't be either.
Ben MackieNapa Green Vineyard Program Manager 
We have to be thinking systematically. Six pillars of leadership: Energy Efficiency; Water Efficiency; Waste Prevention & Supply Chain; Proactive Farming, Soil Health & Biodiversity; Social Justice, Diversity & Inclusion; Climate Action & Regenerative Agriculture. We can't afford half measures. There's been too much marketing and not enough substance. We're in a climate and community crisis.
