HEALING THE PLANET

Going Green
What does the term "Going Green" mean?
Going Green or Environmentalism is a concern for the preservation, restoration, or improvement of the natural environment, such as the conservation of natural resources, prevention of pollution, and certain land use actions. It often supports the struggles of indigenous peoples against the spread of globalization to their way of life, which is seen as less harmful to the environment.
The term environmentalism is associated with other modern terms such as greening, environmental management, resource efficiency and waste minimization, and environmental responsibility, ethics and justice.
What is a simple way for me to join the Green Movement?
A simple way to go green is to start recycling immediately. Go to
Earth 911 and find the nearest recycling plants/centers
near you.
