Green Alliance is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) made up of a coalition of people in the Greater Alliance Area who have come together to help Alliance plan a sustainable environment for all of us now and for our children in the decades ahead. Our mission is to develop recommendations and strategies to fulfill the U. S. Mayors’ Climate Protection Agreement with the City of Alliance, and to establish partnerships with various entities of government, education, business, industry and among citizens to educate and empower the greater Alliance community with the goal of developing as an environmentally, socially and economically sustainable community. According to this statement, our mission takes on not only the consequences of global warming but also the wider challenge of building a “sustainable community.” A widely used and helpful definition of “sustainability” is the one developed by the Brundtland Commission: sustainable development is development that “meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. We welcome anyone in the Greater
Alliance Community to join with us in our work. Below, find
information about our organization and a list of easily accessible web
sites for further information on building a sustainable future. Officers Check out the related information below An article on the Oberlin Project Rodman
