We live and breathe the outdoors. These mountains are our home, and protecting their natural splendor is woven into the fabric of Vail’s identity. Our community honors the environment as a source of health, beauty, recreation and economic strength. It’s what makes Vail such a special place to live, work, and play. We value environmental stewardship so much that we wrote it into our founding charter in 1966.

The plans linked on this page summarize Town of Vail’s strategies for meeting our sustainability goals. These plans direct our day-to-day work and guide our local, regional, national and global collaborations. To track our progress, check out the Indicator Dashboard.
