What is sustainability?

Sustainability is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It considers a larger approach to decision-making by determining ahead of time how policies and actions affect people, the environment and our economy.

GreenStep Cities

The City of Northfield participates in the Green Step Cities program and is currently a Step 3 city. Many of the items in the city’s Climate Action Plan (in development) will be tied to Green Step Cities efforts.
