More Information About this Project
Project Needs and Beneficiaries
Too many people feel bewildered by ecological decline and climate change’s complexities because they lack the resources, models and connections to make meaningful change. To encourage daily actions that support green development, vibrant communities and biodiversity worldwide, Green Maps have guided users to local sites, pathways and resources for sustainable living. Since 1995, our adaptable tools have helped 500+ communities in 38 US states and 54 countries bring everyday solutions to light.
Activities
Think Global, Map Local! We support local leadership with Green Map's globally-recognized icons, adaptable tools, workshops and websites, including the participatory platform that will vastly increase our impact. Preview it today at OpenGreenMap.org
