Donald Trump has committed to working with the environmental nonprofit Audubon International to improve the environmental practices on the 20 Trump Golf courses around the world.
At a time when water supply pressures are rising around the western United States, "Trump Golf will seek certification with environmental nonprofit Audubon International for all of its 20 golf courses..." That total includes the 13 Trump Golf properties located in the United States.
"The majority of Trump Golf’s courses are enrolled in the organization’s largest program called the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf. In this program, each golf course will undergo a review process examining environmental planning, wildlife and habitat management, chemical use reduction and safety, water conservation, and water quality management—with a goal of making voluntary improvements toward greater sustainability."
