The Native American Advancement Corp (NAAC) was a proud sponsor of the 51st Annual Environmental Congress hosted by the Association of New Jersey Environmental Commissions (ANJEC) on September 27th. This in-person educational conference brought together environmental leaders, municipal officials, and citizens across the state to explore conservation issues through interactive workshops and inspirational discussions.
Workshop topics included Mastering Municipal Ordinances, Stormwater Management (MS4), Waste Reduction, Renewable Energy, Water Quality Protection, Zoning Reviews, Invasive Species Control, and more. Participants gained valuable insights into tackling New Jersey's pressing environmental challenges. The conference highlighted how local actions can impact globally, empowering attendees to implement sustainable practices in their communities. Featured speakers included NJDEP Commissioner Shawn LaTourette and NJ State Climatologist David Robinson, who addressed how New Jersey is preparing to weather the impacts of climate change through innovative policies and actions. Their perspectives offered a deep dive into the state's climate resilience efforts, from urban greenways to water quality protection, sparking lively discussions on the future of environmental stewardship in the state.
