Cleaner Earth Project

This "project" I like to call my cleaner earth project. Me and my friends pick up trash around our city of Muskegon, Michigan twice a week. We pick up cans along the street and recycle them. Each week we find a different neighborhood to clean up. We also go to the public parks and beaches to pick up trash. I believe we make a difference in our community, because if we don't help out who will.

Project: Bright Idea

Last year, the holiday lights twinkling from homes, businesses, and even boats were friendlier than in years past. I knew that as a result of my Project: Bright Idea, more than 1,200 out of the millions of bulbs in Boca Raton, Florida had been changed to CFLs – compact fluorescent light bulbs – that require only ten percent of the electricity of conventional bulbs.

Rising Tide North Carolina, Climate Control Convergence

This summer "Rising Tide" and various other environmental and social justice organizations across the continent are organizing a convergence for climate action. We have hopes of bringing hundreds of activists together for a large gathering of minds. With the involvement of a wide range of organizers this event will have great possibilities for making change. Ecosystem defenders, urban toxics activists, carbon-free campus campaigners, permaculture farmers, system changers, and solution seekers will gather to network and brainstorm innovative, positive solutions to our urgent climate crisis.
