About us

Welcome to the Sustainable Blacksburg website.

Sustainable Blacksburg is a non-profit community organization which facilitates effective environmental stewardship in the Blacksburg area to enhance the region’s livability and economic vitality by reducing its impact on the local and global environment.

Sustainable Blacksburg is a collaborative community partnership formed as part of a $95,000 U.S. EPA Resource Conservation Challenge grant received by the Town of Blacksburg to address toxic chemical risks facing the community.  Numerous community members have come together to form Sustainable Blacksburg , including representatives from the local government, Virginia Tech, university student organizations, local businesses, architectural and engineering firms, and non-profit organizations.

Blacksburg has won the 2007 Green Innovation Award!
