Sustainable Finger Lakes

Sustainable Finger Lakes (formerly “Sustainable Tompkins”) is a community-based organization whose mission is to promote the long-term well-being of our region by integrating social equity, economic vitality, ecological stewardship, and shared responsibility.

Since 2004, SFLX has been a leader in laying the groundwork for the transition to a resilient local economy, healthy environment, and strong social fabric. We act as convener, connector, and catalyst to engage both the grassroots and policymakers in the work of redesigning how we work and live so that our community can successfully cope with global influences such as climate disruption and energy transitions. Projects and programs have focused on energy efficiency, climate protection, sustainable community development, green collar jobs, sustainable enterprise, and economic/ecological justice. We are a nonprofit 501c3 corporation.
