Green Wisconsin
Wisconsin’s
conservation history and leadership has a
long successful tradition. With leaders
including Aldo Leopold, John Muir, Frank
Lloyd Wright, and Gaylord Nelson, Wisconsin
has proven its commitment to the environment
time and time again. Locally, the Stevens
Point area is home to the Wisconsin
Conservation Hall of Fame, honoring the
people who worked to preserve the very
things that make our state unique, and the
Midwest Renewable Energy Association’s Renew
the Earth Institute.
Travel Green

To protect the
environment, the very green spaces and
waterways that define our area and make it
desirable to visitors and residents, it will
take continued effort and support from
individuals, businesses and the community.
Portage County by its nature is positioned
perfectly to embrace these concepts. Our
green space infrastructures are no
coincidence. Citizen and governmentally led
stewardship of our natural resources, along
with strong support from local advocacy
groups have maintained an exceptionally high
quality of life and sense of place.
