Pledge to make a difference, together.
Today, most of our population growth is being accommodated at the fringes of suburban cities in a sprawling, low-density fashion. These new communities are highly consumptive of rural and agricultural lands, energy, water and material resources, and create traffic congestion. As a result, they also emit damaging amounts of toxins and greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. SUDA gathers and disseminates information about sustainable city-building, undertakes practical research as funds allow, and communicates with key stakeholders about opportunities and benefits of building environmentally-responsible communities.
