A rapidly growing number of cities and towns seek durable solutions to local problems. They understand that short-term fixes, development-at-any-cost, and unchecked environmental risk are simply no longer viable strategies. They know that the old choice between economy and environment is not only unnecessary, it's also liable to backfire. In fact, communities and businesses are learning to prosper from environmental solutions.
Download "Building Community Prosperity Through Natural Capitalism" and "Grappling with Growth" by RMI Senior Consultant Michael Kinsley to learn more about RMI's work with communities.
Or purchase the "Economic Renewal Guide" to learn how a few energetic people can help steer their community toward development that is sensitive to local values and the environment.
Because every community is unique, standardized strategies don't work. Collaborating with local individuals and groups, RMI seeks the most appropriate strategy for each particular community. We fill the role that makes most sense in a given situation: advisor, presenter, coach, facilitator, or process designer. We help citizens and leaders integrate locally generated solutions into a working strategy for development of the community and economy, and restoration of the environment.
