The mission of the Sustainable Community Roundtable is to facilitate dialogue, vision, action, and celebration to help create sustainable community in South Puget Sound. The Roundtable seeks to build consensus on how we can become ecologically, economically and socially sustainable.  

Founded in 1991, the Sustainable Community Roundtable was one of the nation’s first grassroots organizations promoting the vision and principles of sustainability.  With Sustainable Seattle, the Roundtable pioneered the development of citizen-initiated indicators of sustainable community.

What is Sustainable Community?

 A sustainable community continues to thrive from generation to generation because it has...

• A healthy and diverse ecological system that continually performs life sustaining functions and provides resources for humans and other species
  
• A social foundation that provides for the health of all community members, respects cultural diversity, is equitable in its actions, and considers the needs of future generations
  
• A healthy and diverse economy that adapts to change, provides long-term security to residents, and recognizes social and ecological limits
