Waterloo is a member of the local Regional Sustainability Initiative, managed by Sustainable Waterloo Region.

Over 70 organizations are participating, across public, private, and not-for profit sectors. Participating organizations commit to developing a baseline, establishing reduction targets in a variety of impact areas, and reporting on their progress to the broader community.
