Dubuque's Approach
                                                             
Sustainability
is defined by a community’s ability to meet the environmental, economic, and social equity needs of today without reducing the ability of future generations to meet their needs.

Sustainable Dubuque is a holistic approach to making our community sustainable. Our model involves a three-part approach that looks at:
  • Environmental and Ecological Integrity
  • Economic Prosperity
  • Social and Cultural Vibrancy

Each of these pieces is important individually and helps contribute to a sustainable community. Find out more about how the model works.            

                                                                                               
Sustainable Dubuque

   
 
In 2006, the Mayor and City Council identified being designated a Sustainable City as one of their top priorities for our community.  A sustainability plan is among the top Council priorities for this year, and each of this year's priorities incorporate one of the parts of Dubuque's model of sustainability.
