New local green nonprofits

Hey eco enthusiasts!

Just wanted to share a couple of new nonprofits devoted to the environment, and also involving another passion of mine: food.

Greenplate.org: its mission it is to get plastics out of your diet. There are many ways to get involved, like printing out flyers and hanging them in your workplace, condo building, etc...or volunteering.

Green Foodservice Alliance: its mission is to help Atlanta restaurants go green. Their scope is wide: research, education and lobbying...and of course, they're always looking for volunteers.

Get involved!
