How the Program Works

  • Print
The Green Living Program is simple and strategic. Five to eight neighborhood households—an EcoTeam—meet seven times over a four-month period, with the help of a step-by-step workbook. Choosing from a series of practical actions, the team supports one another to reduce water, energy use and waste, buy green products, reduce air and water pollution, and encourage other neighbors to get involved. More than increasing awareness, the Green Living Program enables people to change the way they live—measurably.
