New water!
Greenopolis Founder

Hello!

Deer Park and other bottled water companies have cut down on paper and plastic that they use in their bottles. Looks like they know how to go green! Also to help with the constant landfill growth, reuse the bottles by putting fresh tap water in them instead of just recycling them when the bottled water runs out.

w/ love,

Rebecca

Lent!
Greenopolis Founder

I do not want to be offensive to anyone but i have learned that lent is a good way to save our planet. I am in fact a christian and i believe that giving something up for a period like a month or so is a great way to help our community. You could give up things like hairspray which is harmful to the environment, or you could give up makeup which is usually tested on animals in a rather heinous fashion. This sacrifice by no means has to be permanent, but it is a great way to keep things in shape for a while and help the global community.

These cars are insane!
Greenopolis Founder

Have you heard about the new electric cars? Have you heard about the cars that run on water? Well its all true! Honda has recently made cars that run solo on water! Now, i don't really know what will happen with these cars, but my only concern is that people already complain about the decadence of fossil fuels, i don't want a water crisis on our hands! i could probably handle having to ride my bike or take a bus to school, but i don't think i would do so well about not having any water... The good news is that other companies have created cars that run solo on electricity and batteries. » read more

Flowers can help too!
Greenopolis Founder

Some people underestimate the power of plants. The reality is that environmentalists focus too much on the recent depletion of trees. The thing is that normally people don't realize how much flowers can help the air around you! summer flowers last from around may to august (depending on when you plant them) and if you want your annuals to last through the winter, then when they are in bloom, pluck off the dead flowers to avoid them from "going to seed." Of course the obvious thing to is to always water your plants! » read more

Energy in Effect!
Greenopolis Founder

Another one of the ways that i have chosen to go green is by choosing compact fluorescent lightbulbs instead of regular lightbulbs. This way your house will use less electricity, good for you and the environment, and you will get more light out of one bulb. There are hundreds of ways to go, and stay, green. If you are ever unsure about something or are wondering if you can do anything to help, well, they didn't invent the internet for nothin Smile. » read more

Take care of the air!
Greenopolis Founder

Here are some ways that i have learned how to protect our natural air and help prevent pollution.

My city has just built a new transit system in which electric trains transport people from suburbia to the city. Although i am only 14, i find this a great way to harness our environment's natural energy like the energy of wind and solar power to help out the ozone. » read more

Tofu!!!
Greenopolis Founder

so a man is walking down the street. He was coming from the supermarket where he had bought some tofu. A woman comes up to him and accidentally steps on his toe. He screams and accidentially flings his tofu onto the  street ahead of him. The woman, however, had a fobia of tofu, so she ran into the street and stomped on the tofu and then ran away. the man stood up and screamed "hey get back here! you  stepped on my toe foo!!!"

Greenopolis Founder

just so you know, a good and easy way to GO GREEN is to buy biodegradable starch peanuts for sending long pakages and also buying food at the grocery store that is in recyclable containers.
