Environmental Leadership
Taking care of our precious land and water and developing sustainable practices across the region will protect our place, our people, and our economy. The Mahoosuc region is proud to be leader in Maine’s broader movement toward sustainable tourism.
Implementing and demonstrating environmentally responsible approaches
Our work is guided by these strategic principles:
- Our environment and natural resources are the foundation of our tourism and recreation sector.
- Being a leader in environmental stewardship and stemming climate change makes the Mahoosuc region stand out as a unique and exemplary place to visit.
- The more we build environmental leadership into our community’s infrastructure, the easier it will be for visitors to participate.
Example Projects:
- Supporting work by community partners involved in conservation, providing access to the outdoors, and local food production.
- Area towns are involved in statewide climate resilience planning.
