I’m in the process of making a documentary on sustainability. The documentary will be focusing on finding out what peoples needs are across the country when it comes to energy. This will be a feature length documentary and we will be posting video blogs several times a week on greenopolis.com to keep people posted on what we have been up to and where we are headed.
This promised to be a very fun and exciting documentary that is aimed at getting others involved in our fight for a greener planet. » read more

Over the course of this campaign, we’ve heard a lot of talk about oil pipelines in Alaska, “drill, baby, drill,” and even an unfortunate embrace of so-called “clean coal” technology, though no form of coal is ever truly “clean.” » read more

I came across this rather disheartening story this morning. Starbucks, the famous and increasingly ubiquitous coffee shop, is in trouble with environmentalists (including this one) for irresponsible water use. It seems that it is company policy to have a faucet running below the counter of every Starbucks on the planet at all times. The company claims that this keeps the washing area hygienic.
As you may have guessed, running faucets in every Starbucks on the planet (yes, all 10,000 of them) adds up to quite a bit of water--23.4 million liters a day, to be exact. » read more

The dorm is called the Group Residence for Environmental Engagement
at Northwestern (GREEN), and it’s the most sustainable building on the
Northwestern University campus.
But some freshmen who didn’t sign up to live in a green dorm are being place in the eco-friendly building…much to their surprise.

SustainLane
is one of the largest websites devoted to sustainable living, so it’s
only proper that they would conduct a study on 50 of America’s biggest
cities.
Each city was ranked by its sustainability practices, which
include: quality of air and drinking water, roadway congestion, local
food availability and park space.
