Evenimentele Green (R)Evolution
Green Revolution este o asociatie de ecologie urbana care isi propune sa creeze o comunitate activa, solidara si sanatoasa, care sa se implice in proiecte extinse de ecologie a oraselor din tara. Green Revolution a luat nastere din grupul media Green Report, din dorinta echipei de a misca lucrurile spre verde si altfel decat cu pixul.
Romanii trebuie sa inteleaga ca, in orase, ei sunt garantii si sustinatorii ecosistemului urban. Orasul intreg trebuie sa existe precum un organism cu roluri bine definite in constiinta si actiunea fiecarui locuitor al cetatii.
Asociatia Green Revolution este o continuare a departamentului de evenimente a grupului Green Report.
