Shades of Green

Tara Stanford explores what being “green” really means? How can I become greener? Do I have to trade my car to be green? Can I wear make-up and still be green? Is it easy to incorporate “greenness” into my daily life? What are the benefits of being green; is it really going to make a difference?

Shades of green: A new resource in town!

Green meter: light green

Looking for a great place to discuss being green?  Looking for tips and answers?  Looking for local green resources?  Have a question that demands a quick answer?  I've got the place for you!  GOLO Greenies.

GOLO is an online community supported by WRAL.com and offers users the opportunity to make friends, post blogs, share photos and much, much more.  GOLO recently launched a new feature called GOLO Groups. GOLO Groups allows you to connect directly with members who share similar interests on a highly personalized level.  Last week GoLo user T-man created a group just for us - and by "us," I mean those of us who strive to live greener and make choices to reduce our carbon footprint day-to-day.  T-man's description calls this group, "This is a group for the environmentalists in GOLO."

So if you're looking for some advise or want to offer some words of wisdom, hop on over to the new GOLO Greenies Group and start talking!
