Nominations are being accepted for the Jasper Environmental Stewardship Awards. Deadline: May 27, 2013
The community of Jasper is located in Jasper National Park - the largest Canadian Rocky Mountain National Park, and part of a spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Given our location in a national park, the Municipality of Jasper works toward becoming a model green community which embraces Environmental Stewardship through:
- promoting cooperative planning and management of our resources;
- inspiring community members to actively engage in environmental responsibility processes;
- balancing impacts of our actions today for the benefit of present and future generations; and
- safeguarding resources such as water, air, soil and species biodiversity.
The Municipality of Jasper and Jasper National Park, recognizing their common interest in promoting environmental sustainability and stewardship in Jasper, have established the Environmental Stewardship program.
The Environmental Stewardship Coordinator develops programming and public awareness initiatives to continually improve environmental sustainability in Jasper. Working in partnership with Parks Canada, the Municipality operates in a manner to ensure ecological integrity of the park for future generations.
