You know Green is the New… oh no that’s for colors. This Green is for Eco-Friendly. Try and find a definition for “Green” and you will be searching pages and pages on Google.
Country Home magazine just released in their April issue 2008 Best Green Cities in America. Bremerton/Silverdale as they are listed together ranked in the top 25 at number 22 out of the total 379 cities in America.
Green is huge as we all look for ways to help shrink our “footprint” and treat the earth with respect and honor. We are all trying to REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE! As individuals try to conquer this feat we are demanding the same from the companies we deal with and the place we live.
In its second annual Best Green Places Report the Country Homes magazine studied hundreds of cities on items such as, official energy policies, green power, green buildings, and the availability of locally grown food.
Several Washington cities made the list -
- Bellingham: 3
- Seattle-Bellevue-Everett: 13
- Wenatchee: 26
- Olympia: 28
- Spokane: 37
- Mount Vernon-Anacortes: 48
- Tacoma: 61
- Kennewick-Richland-Pasco: 108
- Yakima: 112
- Longview: 244
