| No Comments

I just read a post on a listserv from a PTA mom who attended a meeting focused on improving the school lunch program in MCPS. How is this an issue that effects the environment you ask?

Clean Currents, LLC, a DC area sustainably-operated clean energy business announced today that it is sponsoring SILVERDOCS: AFI/Discovery Channel’s Documentary Festival and donating offsets to make the event the first ever carbon neutral documentary film festival in the U.S.  The company will measure the carbon emissions from the energy used by the film festival and purchase clean energy credits to completely offset them. Clean Currents will also advise and help SILVERDOCS promote environmental initiatives during the week-long film fest in June.

Councilmember Roger Berliner Requests ‘Green Ideas’ 

ROCKVILLE, March 14, 2007—Montgomery County Councilmember Roger Berliner today called on residents to provide “green ideas” to help make the County a model community in the battle against global warming.

Berliner asked residents to share thoughts on protecting the environment at The Response of County Government to Global Warming, a public forum held attended by more than 100 people at the Council Office Building in Rockville. The forum explored the necessity for taking action and identifying specific best practices.
