Hey! I'm Georgia. I recently moved across the mid-west to live in Grensburg, Kansas, population approx. 900. In May of 2007, Greensburg was wiped off the map after it was completely destroyed by an EF5 tornado, one of the largest recorded to this day. With a chance to start from scratch, the city decided that rebuilding green was the way to go, and I work for a non-profit organization, Greensburg GreenTown, to help make the right choices about products and companies used in the rebuilding, helping make Greensburg a true model of sustainability. Greensburg also has a sister city in China, Han Wang, with the same concepts in mind after being destroyed by an earthquake last year.
I get such a senses of hope and passion from being a part of both this movement, and this generation and I couldn't imagine a better time to be alive. The planet is everyone's future so I believe that everyone should do their part to ensure that it will be there.
