While our organization’s efforts focus on nature studies and bringing sustainability to our local communities, our long term goals are global. By focusing our attention on the natural world we can be reminded of the peace that exists at all times regardless of the strife and complexity of our times. Sustainable communities are reflections of the inherent nature of human beings: caring, intelligent and cooperative.
Sustainability: Meeting the needs of the present without jeopardizing future generations’ ability to do the same.
