绿色行动! Go Green!

Green Action You Can Take Immediately!

Greening the Beige is dedicated to improving the quality of our living environment in Beijing.

At the same time, GtB is a global collective. Whether disaster strikes in our own backyard or in our neighbor's, it affects us. So here's where we like to keep a list (and check it twice) full of GREEN HOPE and IDEAS FOR ACTION.

From the reconstruction of the Sichuan earthquake region in China to the ongoing relief efforts in the Hurricane Katrina disaster zones of New Orleans, below are two brilliant organizations helping those in need around the globe.

If you have a suggestion or correction for this little list, please let us know!!!
