CT Campaign for Sustainable Communities

Goal

The Connecticut Campaign for Sustainable Communities is a joint effort of green organizations, businesses, leaders and community members to mobilize people across the state to connect around green efforts, within and across Connecticut communities, and across areas of interest. 

Our goal is to connect an additional 1,000 people throughout Connecticut this October.

Initiative Objective

The call to action, is to engage people throughout Connecticut, to share and connect in their community by joining their town page and to share local initiatives and profiles. True sustainability is built from the ground up and the campaign encourages people to first connect and support sustainability in their own town, and then to share local successes with people throughout the state and beyond. To create a green America, we need to foster sustainability in every community. If we are all connected, share ideas, green efforts and initiatives, together we will be able to face challenges, and together work on solutions. The GreenTowns platoform provides a place for us all to come together, to connect and celebrate green efforts, as well as a place where we can can support each other and be more effective in the overall goal of creating sustainable communities.
