==Welcome to Day 1 of a new GreenPRO website, now "GreenPolicy360.net". ==
&nbsp;


We are a green network as our new .net domain name suggests. We are built on a MediaWiki platform. We are grassroots-powered and open to 'greens of all colors' who are working in good faith to create a better world. We are a meeting place for discovering best practices, that is, practical solutions for day-to-day problems. We are a "clearinghouse", a "database", a go-to-resource where you can find, share, upload/download information for your green community, your personal efforts, changes that will make a real difference.
<center><font color=gray><big><big>'''May 2024'''</big></big></font></center>


Picture a place where a keyword can deliver multiple examples of proposals, resolutions, real-world models for your town, village, city or state. Consider how immediate access to forms, applications and plans that have worked in the past can power up your dreams and activism, your petition to a city council for a green belt (based on an already successful model, say from Portland, OR) or a game plan for a community-wide tree planting effort designed to produce substantial, sustainable benefits for decades. With multiple points-of-action and on-message results, GreenPolicy360 can be utilized by any community around the globe.


Look for your interest in our categories of action, topics, notable cities, locations...  Take the model practices and resources you find here and put them to good use... Employ them, recyle them, spread the word and “practice what you dream”, the ripple effects will be amazing and the world will shift a little toward a balance with nature and a sustainable, healthy environment.

We envision our new site to be your site.  Do you have a green success story? Add your story in the form of your local government/community efforts and achievements to our Green wiki site.

We are growing again after a few years of hiatus.

AB 275, Rainwater Capture Act of 2011 makes it legal for all Californian's to capture rainwater, thus decreasing stormwater runoff, increasing groundwater infiltration, and offsetting unnecessary potable water use for things like landscape watering. Wholly H2O, which helped craft the bill, considers this legislation a no brainer for California, a state whose water sources and their ecosystems are over taxed and under cared for.
<center>[[File:Blue green lines 1.png]]</center>


Yet, there are bill opponents talking directly to the Governor and asking him to veto the bill. We would like to see as many people as possible contact the Governor to request a signature. Please support AB 275, Rainwater Capture Act of 2011 by writing Governor Brown before October 8th.
&nbsp;

===Our Purpose===
<center>[[File:'Thin Blue Layer' of Earth's Atmosphere 2.jpg]]</center>     


GreenPolicy360 is an online database which lists local legislation that is congruent with Green values. Unlike numerous other web sites, we don't offer analysis and summaries of the legislation, but the wording of the legislation itself along with other pertinent information, including a link to the original source.  In time, we hope to offer interesting background information for many of the entries listed in our database.  There are literally hundreds of entries and the database is growing all the time!! See the [[Introduction Video]].
&nbsp;             


GreenPolicy360 was developed for use by all sorts of people.  Whether you're a progressive elected official, an activist or a concerned citizen, GreenPolicy360 lets you know how other communities are dealing with many of the key public policy issues of yesterday, today and tomorrow. If you're working to craft similar legislation for your local community OR you just want to get an idea of what might be possible, you can copy and paste the text from legislation from other locales and modify it to your own needs.
<center>[https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/GreenPolicy360-eOS <font color=green><big><big><big>'''GreenPolicy360.com | .net | .org'''</big></big></big></font>]</center>     


GreenPolicy360 is also an excellent reference source for students of all ages!  Whether you're studying public policy administration, urban planning, or any of a wide array of topics, GreenPolicy360 will save you time and energy.  Rather than spend hours and hours trying to locate source material, you will find much of what you're looking for right here, right now.
