Green America's blog"Reclaiming the Streets," the latest issue of the Green American
What are your green resolutions for the new year? It seems that a number of the most popular New Year's resolutions (get in shape, lose weight, save money, live lighter on the Earth) can be targeted with one big green step: green your transportation. Our most recent Green American, "Reclaiming the Streets," covers the health, wellness, environmental, and community benefits that come from more of us walking and biking for our transportation.
