In 2004, prompted by a mutual concern for our water supplies, four diverse green industry associations have joined together and formed the Green Associations Water Conservation Council.  The council created the Water Action Guide, a Web site and downloadable document, with the information you need to effectively influence decisions or restrictions that will affect water use in your community—and your business.

A nonprofit housing charity whose goal is to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness and to create decent shelters around the world, Habitat for Humanity may be building a home near you. PLANET and Project EverGreen are working to coordinate the contribution of beautiful lawns and landscapes donated by companies in the local areas where the homes are built. The U.S. locations selected for 2006 to date include:

• Baton Rouge, Louisiana
• Biloxi, Mississippi
• Hartford, Connecticut
• Houston, Texas
• Lawrence, Kansas
• North Ft. Myers, Florida
• Minneapolis, Minnesota

We are hoping that PLANET members will want to donate materials and services for
these locations once the dates are determined. If you are interested in participating in the Habitat for Humanity program or would like to receive further information, please contact Sherry MacDonald at sherrymacdonald@landcarenetwork.org.

 

GreenCare for Troops gives back to soldiers’ families for their commitment to safeguarding the U.S. and the world through active service in the Middle East. Local participating landscape and lawn care company volunteers take care of these deserving families’ lawn and landscape needs while their family member is overseas. Our hope is that many PLANET members will participate in this rewarding program. Volunteer companies will manage the program themselves and will help a maximum of 10 families each. All volunteer companies will receive a MissionKit from Project EverGreen so that they can successfully run the program and solicit publicity for their efforts.

If you are interested in participating in the GreenCare for Troops program, please complete the application form and have a MissionKit mailed to you.
