Sustainable Lehigh Valley

Since 2004, the Alliance has published an annual booklet that includes both a directory of organizations, businesses, and professionals promoting sustainability in the greater Lehigh Valley as well as essays related to sustainability. The annual print edition is now called Sustainable Lehigh Valley. Its directory is available as well online on this website. The essays are also available online in a separate section on the Alliance website. Over the years, we’ve given increased emphasis to these thought-provoking Voices of the Valley essays written by people from throughout the greater Lehigh Valley.

In this section, you can find the following:

• Why a Sustainability Directory
• Current listings for organizations & community groups, plus businesses & organizations that advertise in the print edition, with special listings of:
  • Colleges & Universities
  • Environmental Advisory Councils [EACs]

  • Watershed Associations
• Voices of the Valley – essays & articles on sustainability by members of the greater Lehigh Valley community
