Community Green Groups
Throughout Will County, individuals with the common interest of "Going Green" have come together to form what are known as Green Groups. These groups work together to improve the state of their community. Their purpose is to inform and educate others on what they can do in order to protect the environment. They also perform many actions and special projects to recycle and reduce waste. These special projects enhance public awareness to residents and businesses on the importance of natural resources and energy efficiency. Ideas are also provided on how to become more environmentally-friendly while saving money.
