The Bainbridge Island Environmental Conference seeks to increase knowledge and empower action on environmental issues facing our Island community. The conference is an annual collaborative effort of multiple community organizations. The conference brings local experts across a range of topics addressing the environment and sustainability into conversation with community members to increase learning and knowledge sharing across the community, energizing and encouraging action(s) to take as a follow up to conference participation. Additionally, the Conference aims to provide new perspectives and solutions to environmental issues facing the Puget Sound region.
