A brief description of how the institution engages in public policy advocacy for sustainability, including the issues, bills, and ordinances for or against which the institution has advocated:
In 2008 Northland College passed a resolution to support, as part of a "Wisconsin Energy Independent Community" a committment to generate 25% of its energy by 2025. This resolution was signed to support a Concurrent Resolution of United States Congress, March 2006 and Wisconsin Executive Order 192, April 2007. The signing of the resolution helps unify a regional voice for energy responsibility and has helped make the Chequamegon Bay Region a national model of regional sustainability initiatives.
