BETHESDA GREEN
April 15, 2009
A very ambitious venture to try to make Bethesda, MD the greenest community in America. Starting with purely community involvement and a shoestring budget, BG has already made an imact in its first year of operation. The orgnaization shows much promise and should be around for a long time doing much to increase sustainability in Bethesda, throughout Montgomery County, and across Maryland and the National Capital Region.
