Today, it’s even more important for stakeholders across Wisconsin to collaborate and establish a solid new direction for the state — one that integrates a green growth strategy to create more prosperous, secure and sustainable communities, address climate change, and respect our heritage and tradition of environmental stewardship.

“If you believe in climate change and you believe in science, well then it’s reasonable to expect that we can accelerate the solutions that are in front of us and create a green economy for the state.” “The science is demanding that we be bold. So let’s be bold.” — John Imes

WEI also works to change the direction of environmental policy by challenging stakeholders to look at innovative strategies and policies that can lead to better environmental results and a more productive business climate.

“By investing in clean energy, clean manufacturing, water stewardship, and regenerative agriculture while we “green” our infrastructure and electrify our transportation, we can address climate change and create a more resilient, vibrant and thriving Wisconsin.” — John Imes

Executive Director John Imes continues to serve as an advisor to the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters initiative that examines Wisconsin's dependence on fossil fuels and offers "pathways to progress" that support sustainable energy sources. John works on the Advisory Committee that developed: "Climate Forward: A New Road Map for Wisconsin's Climate And Energy Future:" Find the Roap Map and read John's guest column to find ways we can implement the recommendations to achieve a green and growing Wisconsin.
