Cities
across the nation are discovering that growing plants on rooftops does
a lot of good for everyone. Community
activists, researchers, city planners, and landscape architects are
working together in a number of communities across the nation to use
rooftops to help clean air and water, and save energy. New York City
currently has 60,000 square feet of green roofs in place. Chicago has
an impressive 2 million green square feet. Vegetation on rooftops acts
as a filter for dirty city air, helps reduce storm-water runoff, acts
as a filter for runoff water, and insulates the buildings below,
lowering energy bills. LISTEN

This site was given to me by Worksource I have been zestfully loinokg for work now for seven months. The Rep. at Worksource suggested I be in touch with your group I guess because I am well educated and loinokg for higher end employment opps, primarily in the nonprofit sector (arts, education, humanities, etc.) but am open to corporate opps as well. Let me know how to participate. Many thanks. Jim
