Green Policy:About

Welcome to Our MediaWiki Green Site

We are a wiki. We’re a community. MediaWiki powers our online collaborative tools -- MediaWiki software.

Think of us (and you are ‘us’) as a community of greens who want to share our ‘best practices’ and who believe in "change, change for the better." We look out, like Apollo, at a blue-green 360° world and we look to change the way governments run, the way businesses run, the way the world works in order to bring sustainable changes that will positively impact all of our lives and our environments. We look for successful waves of green changes that ripple through our world and bring benefits, not damage as we too often see in the current structures and process of government and business.

We are a community site, where your success stories can be shared, your models and prototypes and proposals, resolutions, ordinances, and all the elements of how to envision and create successful green campaigns can be shared. Let’s take the best in the field, examples of ideas and 'green best practices' that have come to fruition (and should become guide lights, city-to-city, community-to-community, region-to-region) and make these green models available to all who want to join up and make a difference.

Our GreenPolicy360 network is a clearinghouse, an interactive site where you can easily find what works and ‘model’ what has worked without ‘reinventing the wheel’. Take the best practices here and pass them along. Offer your green success stories and practical solutions by uploading your model green practices for all to use. Keep on doing your best and keep on with your day-to-day efforts to create a better world.

At the Beginning

GreenPolicy360 began as a project proposed to the Green Institute by Steven Schmidt, the Institute's publishing director and siterunner. As envisioned, Green Policy's online network set out to be a GreenLinks network and online source of shared green 'best practices'. Our goal imagined green policies flowing into practice, a kinetics of action and dynamic change.

Green Institute's director-in-charge, Dean Myerson, and our advisory board including Bill McKibben who was about to begin his Step It Up global warming campaign and 350.org. Our team said "Go, greenlight" and we launched!

In 2006, the first web version of our green best practices site went online in beta.

In 2008, we expanded our wiki network, renamed as 'GreenPolicy360' and Green Institute transfered its .net/.com/.org domains and oversight to our current wiki cooperative model.

In the years following, the GreenPolicy project has grown steadily. As of January 2016 we have over 6 Million views of the home site, many more forwards and re-forwards of content and pages, social media and shares, and GreenPolicy has extended its global outreach with an eco Operating System (eOS) of sites and apps, news and science linking green initiatives, policies and practices via a growing worldwide open source network.

Recent system updates include Semantic MediaWiki 1.19.13 as our mapping of green actions grows -- http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/World_map
