CSI has developed the 5 Big Goals for 2040 series of reports to comprehensively detail a 20-year vision and pathway for transforming the PNW's infrastructure. The first report addressed Sustainable Infrastructure broadly, the second report focused on Energy, the third Water and now we are addressing the topic of Waste and materials management. The Center for Sustainable Infrastructure (CSI) is the premier Pacific Northwest-based nonprofit focused on helping catalyze transformational systemic change across the PNW by sharing state-of-the-art solutions to tap into and better leverage the billions of dollars spent each year on infrastructure.
