Glad to know that it’s been around for 9 years already! Keep up the great work !
I was not even aware of this organization. It is good that someone is taking it upon themselves to organize countries to make the world a greener place. A lot more can be accomplished if countries openly share their green initiatives.
Yeah, I didn’t know anything about this organization either.
I guess I’ll check to see if the live stream’s still up and running.
Great to see so many people getting involved in such an important cause.
You site is like a crash course in going green and the companies that can help you make that happen. I’ve bookmarked the site and will be looking for your posts in the future.
Our environment is our responsibility. All of us have to take actions to keep our living areas comfortable for our health. No wonder that all countries have to participate.
