BECOME A PROTECTOR OF THE GREAT LAKES REGION
We Know You're Busy
Businesses can make a difference for the environment but owners don't always have the time or resources to advance needed change
We Can Help
Join over 170 businesses that trust the Great Lakes Business Network to help amplify their voice with elected leaders and the media to advance solutions to the environmental issues facing our region
Many entrepreneurs are frustrated their businesses are misrepresented as caring more about profit than protecting the environment, so we formed a network of owners who believe companies should be part of the solution and arm them with resources to become leading protectors of the Great Lakes region and economy.
OUR FOCUS ISSUES
Harmful Algal Blooms
Working together, we can generate momentum towards a clean Lake Erie
Straits of Mackinac Pipeline
Removing the 67-year-old Line 5 pipeline from the Great Lakes because it poses an immediate threat to our businesses, economy, and way of life
Clean Energy
Creating a clean energy economy in the Great Lakes region offers long-term benefits
We also keep our members aware of and engaged in emerging and urgent issues that impact the Great Lakes and the communities that depend on them to thrive
“The Great Lakes Business Network keeps me informed on the environmental issues I care about and connects me to other regional leaders to ensure the largest impact.”
