PRESIDENT'S COUNCIL ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Meetings
Subject: The Seventh Meeting of the President's Council on
Sustainable Development (PCSD) in Washington, DC.
Summary: The President's Council on Sustainable Development, a
partnership of industry, government, and environmental, labor, and
civil rights organizations, will convene its seventh meeting in
Washington, DC. Council members will further discuss PCSD's role in
developing recommendations to the President toward the integration
of environmental and economic policy and, ultimately, establishing a
long-term path toward a sustainable United States by the year 2040.
The Council will revisit the problem statement, in terms of
achieving a sustainable future--identifying what types of practices
the United States has employed that have taken us down a path of
unsustainability.
Council members will discuss at length draft goals for a
sustainable future, which have been developed by each of the PCSD's
task force--Eco-Efficiency; Energy and Transportation; Natural
Resources Management and Protection; Population and Consumption;
Public Linkage, Dialogue, and Education; Sustainable Agriculture;
and Sustainable Communities. The task forces have generated these
goals based on information gleaned from programs, initiatives, and
efforts currently occurring around the United States and
observations of what business and manufacturing practices are
sustainable. The Council will also engage in spirited debate about
the economic incentives for developing and maintaining ecologically-
sound business and manufacturing practices.
Date/Time: Thursday, 12 January 1995--1:30-5:30 p.m., Friday, 13
January 1995--8:30 a.m.-3 p.m.
Place: Chattanooga Trade and Convention Center, 2 Carter Plaza,
Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Status: Open to the Public.
Contact: Sarah McCourt, Director of Communications, 202-408-
5296.
