What is sustainable development?

SuNNS is a group of concerned citizens on the North Shore that has a collective vision and strategy to encourage sustainable, locally driven community and economic development.
Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the needs of the future. We invite you to help us imagine what that could look like in our community! North Shore, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Please see our What’s Happening page to see the latest news from the Eastern shore which is devastating. The Houston government has finally shown it’s true colours and is totally supporting corporate interests over the interests of the environment and local residents.
