Chesapeake Sustainable Business Alliance

The CSBA is an alliance that “educates the public on the importance of supporting the local economy, and encourages businesses and consumers to be environmentally sustainable and socially responsible.” Through local business ownership, economic justice, cultural diversity, and a healthy natural development, they build long-term economic empowerment and prosperity in communities. The public is educated to reduce material and energy costs, recycle and reuse waste, and buy and sell locally.
CSBA’s current initiatives include: recruiting and engaging members, expanding the successful Buy Local Baltimore campaign (http://www.buylocalbaltimore.com .com ), working on the Buy Fresh-Buy Local campaign, and supporting other initiatives including Biodiesel Cooperative (http://baltimorebiodiesel.org ), Recycle Bank, and the Green Walking Tour and identifying high-priority member needs to guide future programs.
