Sustainability is more than greenhouse gas emissions and recycling. Sustainability is a strategy for delivering long-term economic benefits to communities of all sizes. The Sustainable Communities Leadership Summit 2012 will focus on sustainability as a lens for enhancing economic prosperity and a strategy for gaining competitive advantage.
The summit, intended for mayors, councilmen, municipal staff and community business leaders, is presented by the Applied Sustainability Center in the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas.
