Northern Environment Action Team (NEAT) is a grassroots, not-for-profit organization. Since 1989, NEAT has focused on increasing awareness of resource conservation, waste reduction and other urban environmental issues through educational programming, special events and other programs. NEAT’s philosophy is that simple, practical actions will lead to significant reduction in our personal environmental impact. NEAT has found that initiatives which promote change to a more environmentally responsible attitude are most effective when implemented at the community level and involve direct contact with people. NEAT believes that outreach programs will ultimately foster lifestyle changes in the community that will ensure the continuation of these positive actions and entrench them as accepted attitudes. NEAT is an award-winning organization and enjoys strong community support demonstrated by public participation and political support for its environmental educational initiatives.
