Netherlands Sustainability Green Plan by Huey Johnson

Green Plans are comprehensive, integrated management strategies designed to achieve environmental and economic sustainability, replacing traditional single-issue policies.

These plans have been implemented worldwide, including New Zealand, the Netherlands, and other European Union countries. Advocate Huey Johnson has introduced them to parts of the United States, believing they are crucial for managing Climate Change.

The Netherlands' National Environmental Policy Plan (NEPP), adopted in 1989, is the longest-running example. Despite facing severe environmental problems like congestion and heavy industry, the country achieved significant recovery in under 20 years through its implementation.
