This webinar from the National Association of Counties is an introduction to the issues of "green governance" at the county level. This is just one of a series of webinars that NACo is offering through the Green Government Initiative.

Registration is required; the webinar will run from 2:00pm – 4:00pm Eastern time.

Green momentum is here, and counties have positioned themselves as leaders. With increasing momentum, green policies and programs have taken shape as counties hunt for the most effective targets, incentives and rewards to help affect behavioral change in their communities. Counties of all regions and compositions are helping us understand that green can be as much about doing the right thing for the environment as it is about being fiscally and socially responsible.

This webinar will utilize county best practices that will allow you to understand:

• How to begin a green government movement in your county
• Challenges to "going green" and how to overcome them
• How to engage key players
