This is GreenHouston. I’ve lived in the Houston area (Kingwood, specifically) for almost 4 years now, and I’m amazed at the lack of environmental responsibility in this city and its surrounding areas. Recycling, emissions, waste control, and most importantly environmental education, among other things, are practically nowhere to be found in this city.

I know Texas is way behind as a state in the environmental game, and I am in no ways unrealistic or obsessed in thinking we can change things overnight with radical behavior and protests. However, all the little things are what can make a difference if a lot of people are doing them!

So stick around, subscribe to this feed, and we CAN make a difference. All it takes is a little time and effort. This site will be your gateway to tips, meetups, articles, government rulings, etc., that impact us, and, more importantly, impact our kids!

My first post (later today) will be the first of many lists of 10 things you can do to help out!

Thanks for stopping by, and feel free to drop me a line if you have questions or comments about the site, or want to help out in your own way!
