Green Jobs Tour

Last Thursday, I cruised around the city on the Green Jobs Tour with a small but mighty band of eco-activists visiting some of the innovative people who are incorporating green practices into their businesses. The variety of businesses surprised me--not only a solar panel installer, but also a bakery, a gift shop, and a fast food restaurant. The enthusiasm and ingenuity of these progressive-minded people dramatically demonstrated the broad-based grassroots interest in going green. The next four posts give a brief description of the ways businesses can save money and resources and take a step towards saving the world.
