"Don't accept that you can't make a difference. Because if you can't make a difference, you won't make a difference, and if you put a multiplier on that we will continue on an unsustainable pathway."
~ Maurice Strong,
Canadian environmentalist & businessman
Sustain Winona: Environmental Policy
The environmental and economic consequences of climate change compel us,
as Winona's largest public and private institutions, to commit to
reducing greenhouse emissions through the promotion of energy
conservation, low carbon energy technologies and pollution-prevention
strategies. Recognizing the linkages between climate change, energy
security, environmental health and robust economic growth, we are partnering
as Sustain Winona to share experiences, fund solutions, and educate our
communities on the need for aggressive action to address climate change.
