Gotland is a partner in the Trisco Project funded under POWER, and is an example of an island who has taken the decision to become an ecologically sustainable society within the course of a generation. In Gotland, Sweden's biggest island, environmental issues have always been of central importance. Being close to the sea, the soil, the meadows
and the forest leads to a solid commitment to the environment, and maybe the need for long-term sustainable development is more evident on an island, where the conditions for life often are shaped by local resources.
This demonstrates that if renewables are developed appropriately, they can make a significant contribution to the Social, Environmental and Economic Sustainability of communities.
