Complete the Michigan Green Communities Challenge

The Michigan Green Communities Challenge is an annual program that serves as a guide to help communities measure their progress towards sustainability. The current Challenge, for actions taken through the 2022 calendar year is open now through May 1, 2023.

 

The Challenge includes several categories and each is comprised of several action items. Communities earn points by completing these action items. Participation is free and open to any local government in Michigan

Recognition Awards: Track your sustainability progress, see how you compare to other Michigan communities, and earn certification as a bronze, silver, gold, or platinum community. Challenge participants earn a logo to display on your website and in print materials, are publicized at the annual awards conference and on the MGC website, and are included in a press release.
