What a sustainable city and community is, and how they are beneficial to society today.
Sustainable cities and communities in America were originally founded in Vermont in 1990. Although the original idea came from people who lived in Eastern Europe.
The Vermont governor Madeleine M. Kunin traveled to Bulgaria and her policy advisor George Hamilton came along as well. During this trip Madeleine's attention was drawn to the environmental health changes of Eastern Europe.
In 2005 the board of directors of the ISC focused on climate change and environmental health in the United Stated and Asia.
By doing this the organization was able to partner with many different university and companies to develop practical solutions to reduce harmful emissions.
Their organization was called The Institute for Sustainable Communities ISC. Which was located in Eastern Europe.
After her first trip to Eastern Europe Madeleine along with George Hamilton created a new organization.
