On Track to a Greener Michigan with Consumers Energy
and Michigan International Speedway

Consumers Energy and Michigan International Speedway have teamed up with the Michigan Association of Conservation Districts to plant 50,000 white pine seedling across Michigan.

As sponsors of the initiative, Consumers Energy and Michigan International Speedway are providing the seedlings through local conservation districts. Alcona Conservation District is looking for groups to participate in planting events to be held on publicly accessible lands such as parks, school grounds or forest property, or township and county properties where the trees have the greatest chance for survival.

If your group is interested in participating in this effort, please contact Alcona Conservation District at (989) 724-5272 before April 6, 2015.

About the Sponsors

Consumers Energy is Michigan's largest utility, providing natural gas and electricity to 6.6 million of the state's 10 million residents in all 68 Lower Peninsula counties.

Why are we doing this? Consumers Energy has adopted sustainability as a company-wide goal. That means we operate with a fundamental commitment to leave our company and state better than we found them. We strive to fulfill the needs and wants of our generation without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same.

Nestled in the lush Irish Hills of Southeastern Michigan, Michigan International Speedway is the Great Escape, a venerable NASCAR national park where fans can get away and enjoy the very best in racing and camaraderie. It's the love of racing and the thrill of a great time for race fans and drivers alike.

"MIS takes great pride in knowing that our green initiatives have made a significant, positive impact to the environment and sport of auto racing, and we continue to do different things to move forward with those initiatives. It's the right thing to do to protect our environment. Our brand at MIS is very much an environmentally friendly one." - MIS President Roger Curtis
