GenGreen.orgThere's a new green website in town, one with a flair for the local. Sure, big sweeping movements are inspiring and all, but they'll quickly stall without local support. 

You know exactly what I mean.  Let's say you want to recycle your old electronics or get in touch with eco-groups.  Instead, you end up with Google fatigue, lost in a jungle of 1990's era government websites.

GenGreen.org is out to change that. Here's their mission:

The goal of GenGreen is to "mainstream green" for all by providing easy access to the resources that make sustainable living easier for everyone on a local level. This is accomplished in a variety of ways from our extensive online network and public events that encourage connection, growth and education through communication, to our online marketplace where people can find the eco-friendly products and services they need to support their sustainable lifestyles.

So far they have a handy local resource guide.  Just pop in your state and you're served up your state's homepage, which carries links to recycling centers, cooperatives, green businesses, jobs and connections to other green-minded folks.  There's also a handy events box, just in time to get out and enjoy the spring weather.

The site's Green Marketplace is set to go live soon, so that's also something to keep an eye on. Pay them a visit, get to know the site's team and see what's going on in your neck of the woods.

Thanks Dan!
