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.
