Green Committee

Members of the Board of Trade’s 30-member Green Committee work to advance a Regional Leadership Action Agenda put forth by the 2007 Potomac Conference “Green As a Competitive Advantage”. This Regional Leadership Action Agenda consists of four top priorities:

  • Promote sustainable business practices by working with federal, state and local governments to increase incentives such as tax credits, subsidies and expedited permitting processes.
  • Utilize research, education and best practice campaigns to raise awareness of Greater Washington’s green assets and business practices.
  • Support regional transit-oriented development and alternative transportation.
  • Establish a regional greenhouse gas reduction target.
