Launch of the ULTIMATE Green Schools Website

Several years in the making and over 300 pages long, Earth Day Network's Green Your School website has arrived!!! With this new application, we have taken the expertise and knowledge of hundreds of schools, teachers, students and administrators to provide you with the ways and means to make your education truly sustainable - from floor to roof, playground to school bus. These extensive, new documents provide the background research, teacher lesson plans AND student action plans for dozens of different school greening possibilities. Start the movement at your school today at www.earthday.net/greenyourschool.

This work of several years wouldn't be possible without your continued support, and we would like to take this opportunity to ask you for a contribution that will allow us to keep providing educators with the quality resources to help green America's schools within a generation.

Your support will:

  • Safeguard children's health and reduce energy consumption at K-12 schools with our Green Schools and Green reModel programs.
  • Protect life around the globe by elevating the collective voices of individuals, communities, and local governments to push for action on Climate Change now.
  • Reduce global warming pollution by promoting the use of green technologies to improve transportation options, create energy efficient buildings, and home appliances.

Click here to donate now!

Invest in our future - support The Green Generation™. Donate today and help us build an active, educated, greener America and global community!

Happy Earth Day!!

Hunt for organic food - Fiji Times Online

By stuartinfiji
Great article in local Fiji Times about organic food in resorts in Fiji: I've talked a lot about fresh organic foods in Fiji lately but not every farmer across Fiji understands what this truly means and why Fiji is unique position to produce the world's best fresh produce. Any use of pesticides, herbicides or chemical sprays to kill insects and bugs, or chemical fertilisers used to increase yields, means that the produce will not be organic because those toxins will seep into the soil or plant and change the flavour and nutritional value of the food.
