 Green Government Initiative 

NACo’s Green Government Initiative provides comprehensive resources for local governments on all things green—including energy, air quality, transportation, water quality, land use, purchasing and recycling. GGI serves as a catalyst between local governments and the private sector to facilitate green government best practices, products and policies that result in financial and environmental savings. Through the initiative, NACo:

  • Develops strategies to save counties money while going green
  • Educates counties on techniques for implementing green strategies
  • Provides tools for counties to educate their communities on all things green
  • Promotes environmentally-preferable purchasing
  • Facilitates an open exchange with the private sector

 

Sign up now to be the first to know about how counties are going green!
