What Does the EESP Mission for a Model Green Community Mean? Can it be Replicated?
EESP is an organization that is dedicated to the environment as well as providing a platform for projects and activities that allows residents to live sustainably. However, we cannot forget the larger picture involving our one world..earth. More communities need to band together at the local, state & federal levels to combat human caused climate change. The time for profit taking should be over. Although the current U.S. administration has pulled away from the Paris Agreement, our individual efforts should be focused on a strong return since future generations depend upon us to act for their health & safety.
