Sustainable Vashon

Upcoming meeting: Sustainable Vashon: Moving Forward
Sunday 23 March 1:00 - 3:30 PM
VMI Land Trust Building



Sustainable Vashon was formed in the Spring of 2002 as a committee of Vashon Islanders for Peace. There is a strong linkage between sustianability and peace, for if all communitites were sustainable, there would be no need to take resources from elsewhere by violent means. The goal of Sustianable Vashon is to make Vashon-Maury Island a more sustainable community, and thus a demonstration for the world.

Information from the September 14, 2002 Conference can be found here.
