Spring Issue 5-14-2008
I just loved the most recent issue of Going Green. I read it cover to cover. The Earth Day experiences were so much fun to read. I was also happy to see the article about the possible plan for a county wide climate action effort.

Solar engineering is the wave of the future.

Every parent would benefit from reading Last Child in the Woods by Richard Louv. Richard Louv’s book is an inspiring reminder to parents, educators, and community leaders of how important it is to continue this work of connecting children to the natural world. It is a book to keep handy and refer to often as we collectively nurture the unique and intimate relationship that children share with the natural landscape around them.

“A man does not plant a tree for himself, he plants it for posterity.”
— Alexander Smith
We are in the rain lately; it’s cool; it’s time to plant a tree. Plant your tree for optimism. You are successful that day!

I have thoroughly enjoyed Going Green. I've already read it cover to cover
and feel that this is what Wilmington has needed for a long time. I hope it
gathers a good, solid following.
