The MillionMile Greenway (MMG) is an organization and system of connected greenways across metropolitan Atlanta, the state of Georgia and the eastern United States.[1] MMG intends to help individuals and local communities begin or expand their efforts at conservation and recreation.[2]
The MillionMile Greenway[3] is a non-profit organization which acts as a mentor for people who want to preserve greenspace.[4] Each section of the MillionMile Greenway aims to conserve greenspace, provide recreation for the public and connect to an existing greenspace. The MillionMile Greenway aims to achieve a balance between population growth and conservation of land and water resources for parks, trails and natural spaces.[5]
