Meiny Prins, CEO of Priva and Businesswoman of the Year (2009), speaks about her vision of The Netherlands as a sustainable delta. "The Netherlands has the opportunity to make an international statement; that we can develop a new vision for the future together. Together, we can create a new perspective for our country, as the greenest city in the world."
We would be an example to all major cities around the world. We can show beautiful, efficient and sustainable living and working environments, where all kinds of decentralized energy solutions are applied and wastewater from the city is recycled to include the production of food. Surely then, the Netherlands will be recognized as a Sustainable Delta. All the ingredients are present. It is about connecting and making these opportunities visible."
