The Senator George J. Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions<\/a><\/strong>\"SSI<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Producing knowledge and linking it to actions that meet human needs while preserving the planet\u2019s life-support systems is emerging as one of the most fundamental and difficult challenges for science in the 21st century. There is growing consensus that traditional methods of generating and using knowledge must be fundamentally reorganized to confront the breadth, magnitude, and urgency of many problems now facing society. The Senator George J. Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions seeks to transform Maine\u2019s capacity for addressing these scientific challenges in ways that directly benefit Maine and other regions. The program of research will also help Maine increase economic activity and technological innovation in ways that sustain the State\u2019s remarkable \u201cquality of place\u201d.<\/p>\n
