Mission Statement
Baltimore
Green Map encourages the discovery, use
and stewardship of the Baltimore region’s natural,
cultural and green living resources for city residents
and visitors alike. It reflects the
cumulative power of many small actions toward building
a healthy and sustainable urban environment for
the benefit of all.
Vision
Baltimore Green
Map is the central clearinghouse to connect
Baltimore residents with natural, cultural and
sustainability resources and to promote green tourism
opportunities for visitors to the city. We
engage Baltimore with the international green mapping
movement, share accomplishments, increase use
of existing resources, and stimulate replication
of successful greening strategies. We celebrate
Baltimore’s
opportunities for choosing daily to make sustainability
a lifestyle choice.
