Municipalities in Cascadia are already leaders in integrating sustainable practices and policies into our civic life. According to Sustainlane, the top 3 cities in the country reside in or close to Cascadia....Portland, San Francisco, and Seattle. We know Vancouver BC, also a city in Cascadia, is a leading sustainable city too.

Municipalities can take big steps forward and accelerate progress by working across sectors in a holistic framework we call 'sustainable community development.' Sustainable community development integrates a comprehensive plan for sustainability into all aspects of community design and ongoing community planning processes.
