About
The Sustainable Summits Initiative builds on the American Alpine Club-hosted conference "Exit Strategies: Managing Human Waste in the Wild", which was followed by Sustainable Summits Conferences in 2014 and 2016. In attendance were land managers, climbers, planners, and scientists representing the world's mountainous regions. Today, the Sustainable Summits conference has continued to shape and share environmentally sustainable solutions in mountain areas along with developing global partnerships. Presented by an alliance of mountain recreation and conservation organizations, the conference is open to all interested individuals from around the world.
