Promoting green living and community gardens

Going green in Toledo

by Michael Smith (Veshengro)

Toledo, Ohio – Leaders with the city of Toledo on Saturday, August 8, 2009, hosted an event at the Erie Street Market to promote green living. The idea was to educate people on various techniques and products they can use to become more environmentally friendly.

Also, in east Toledo the community gathered to kick off an effort to create a community garden in the Birmingham neighborhood.

While we now see that some city leaders in the United States are promoting such green issues openly in the UK we still seem to be missing the government, including local government, with the exception of the London Mayor, involvement in such issues and mostly it is left to NGOs and such to get on with it.

We must all do our bit and we must all come together somehow to exchange information and such like on all issues appertaining to green living on all levels and the Web can be the best tool for this.

Now let's get down to doing just that...
