Greenworks Philadelphia
This article on philly.com kind of goes along with my other post. It's about a sustainability plan that Philadelphia launched over a year ago and how it is getting a national honor for it. The plan has goals that need to be reached and different steps that should be taken to get there. Among the changes that Philadelphia wants to enact is replacing over 85,000 traffic lights with LED lights and adding a 250-kilowatt solar project at the Southeast Water Pollution Control plant. Philadelphia is well on it's way to becoming a very sustainable and green city, and the Greenworks Philadelphia project is helping make sure that we Philadelphia achieves this goal.

Yes, Philadelphia has a very strong, well organized environmental community. There is an Urban Sustainability Forum that I encourage all of you to get involved in, http://www.ansp.org/environmental/2008/09/about-the-urban-sustainability-forum/
