Description
This group seeks to improve the environment of Israel and its region through the Green Zionist Alliance: The Grassroots Campaign for a Sustainable Israel. Learn more at: http://www.greenzionism.org

Mission
The Green Zionist Alliance, a North America-based 501(c)3 nonprofit, offers a place for all Jews — regardless of political or religious affiliation — who care about humanity's responsibility to preserve the Earth and the special responsibility of the Jewish people to preserve the ecology of Israel. We work to educate and mobilize Jews around the world for Israel’s environment; to protect Israel's environment and support its environmental movement; to improve environmental practices within the World Zionist Organization and its constituent agencies; and to inspire people to work for positive change. By focusing on the environment while working from a pluralistic and multicultural base, the Green Zionist Alliance seeks to bridge the differences between and within religions and people — helping to build a peaceful and sustainable future for Israel and the Middle East.
