This Green Life is an online journal of fresh ideas for sustainable living -- shows how strength in numbers can also apply to the steps we take in our personal lives to reduce energy consumption and limit harmful chemicals. You can read it at the web site or subscribe to have it arrive in your email inbox.
The newsletter helps increase one person's ability to impact the community and the earth.
An example in the area of Energy efficiency:
Suggest replacing incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescents, buying energy-efficient equipment bearing the Energy Star label and turning the equipment's power management features on by default.

Selling points
* Benefits to the organization: lower energy bills, points for good citizenship
* Benefits to the public: cleaner air, less global warming pollution, increased energy independence for the United States

Lots of other ideas and a place to share your successes.
