doubt about it -- green is growing. Over the past year or two, we've noticed a big increase in the number of groups going green. Groups are running recycling programs, holding walk/bike to school days, and setting up composting systems at school.
Some groups help the school reduce energy use with simple measures like raising awareness about turning off lights and power strips when not in use. Others sell green-related fundraising items like reusable water bottles and even run environmental fairs where people can learn about the latest green techniques and tools.
Green is such a popular trend that we've launched a new webpage where you can share your interest in making your school and your group more environmentally aware. Here's a link to that page and some other tools from PTO Today.
We hope you'll check out these resources and, please, jump in and share what your group is doing.
