Protecting America's air, water, land and wildlife
is a mission everyone can support!
The Resource supports the environment
as a corporate citizen and as a business. Environmental
protection is a major challenge of our generation. Every community
in America bears the scars of human exploitation ranging from 19th-century
mining, logging and industrial development to 20th-century runaway
urban sprawl and fossil-fueled air and water pollution.
As we enter the 21st century, we face three critical challenges:
healing the scars of the past, standing up for wise public and private
actions in the present and building the institutions and legal frameworks
for the future that will ensure a healthy environment for our grandchildren.
Enormous progress has been made in the last 20 years: environmental
laws have been passed, public agencies have been created and our
citizenry has become much better informed than ever before about
complex relationships linking the way we live and earn our bread
to the quality of the air we breath and the water our kids drink.
Since 1987 our company has made environmental protection a major
focus of our public service commitment. We have devoted thousands
of pro bono hours applying our expertise in planning and non-profit
leadership as founders and leaders of two grassroots citizens groups
in our community. In 1999 we had the opportunity to expand this
work in a private consulting engagement with the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency.
As individual citizens and as a business, The Resource
will continue to seek opportunities to help mission-driven organizations
achieve dramatic results aimed at protecting and improving the environment
in communities across America.
