Bowling Green (& surrounding area) Green DirectoryThis 2008-2009 Green Living Directory was developed by BGGreen Partnership for a Sustainable Community to help to promote ‘green’ businesses in our community. Since our first printing in 2007, consumer awareness and demand for greener business practices and products has increased and ‘greening’ or at least green-washing of businesses has become a common business strategy. This trend has been amplified and accelerated by high gas and oil prices and a rapidly changing energy picture for our country.This directory is designed to help community members vote with their dollars in closer accordance with their beliefs. By exercising the power of the purse, i.e., customer demand, we can encourage businesses to move beyond the profit motive, to help reduce environmental impacts and contribute to the building of a more equitable, sustainable, safe, and prosperous future in our city and region. Most people want to be good stewards of the Earth. Yet, even with good intentions, time and commitment constraints often get in the way of staying informed and purchasing energy-saving and environmentally-friendly products and services. This directory, then, is a tool for busy people. Use it to acquire information and make informed purchasing decisions, to stimulate greener business practices, products, and services in the local community. Throughout this directory you will see *Green Partners*. These businesses have made contributions to support the goals and mission of BG Green and to help fund the printing of this Green Living Directory. We encourage you to thank these businesses and use them, so that they may prosper, for the benefit of all. Editor-in-Chief (Click category links to search for local green businesses) Categories
