GREEN IDEAS AND RESOURCES

Environmental concerns and the means to address them are subject to perspective. That is, people don't always agree on the best courses of action to address environmental issues. Often, we must take in information and determine for ourselves what is "right" and which courses of action best fit our capabilities. That being said, the member of the Green Team contend that we must do SOMETHING to address the degradation of our environment--the planet on which we live and the atmosphere that sustains us. The following links to tips, suggested reading, and related links, we hope, will help you determine what changes you can and should make to do your part to help heal our physical world.
The volume of plastics flooding our oceans, our landfills, our roadsides, our foodstuffs, and even the air we breathe is staggering. Plastics present a very real threat to our planet's well-being, so one of the Green Team's areas of focus is on plastics. We do not ignore the perils associated with air pollution, water pollution, chemicals in our foods, etc.; however, we feel we can make the most immediate impact on plastics.
