Building a More Sustainable Region

Posted byChris Thompson - 09.22.2010

Building a vibrant region in today's global economy demands a focus on sustainability and Northeast Ohio is emerging as a leader in issues tied to sustainable agriculture, manufacturing and energy. The Sustainable Cleveland 2019 initiative led by the city of Cleveland is just one example. That effort is being highlighted this week during a second summit. Our colleagues over at Green City Blue Lake have a good overview of the progress being made by the Cleveland efforts. Read Marc Lefkowitz's post.
