Green Living in the Denver, the Mile High City
One of the great things about Mile High urban living , whether you’re in Denver, Boulder, or Golden is the ability to live in a great city while being close to the mountains and the outdoors. There’s a lot of opportunity to connect with the outdoors and nature with all the biking, trail running, skiing and amazing natural beauty. Since many of us are here for this balanced access to the mountains and city living, it’s great to see so many green resources in our area
The city of Denver has been focusing on ways to encourage environmental responsibility and awareness through many initiatives, such as newly announced bike program, a focus on connecting parks and green spaces with transportation corridors, and now an entire website dedicated to the GreenPrint Denver .
The GreenPrint Denver Website
This site is full of great information from quick, easy tips to make a positive impact on the environment and your use of resources to programs offered by various vendors for rebates on “greening” your home, to information on Denver’s long term goals and plans to be more environmentally friendly. The site is laid out with sections on:
- Water and Environment
- Solid Waste and Recycling
- Energy and Emissions
