Thank you – to readers and followers of Green News Update — for making this another great year. Since our startup in 2012 we have posted over 250 stories – and you have responded! Our visitors hail from more than 110 countries. We all have something in common:
We care about the planet — sustainability is our cause.
We’re asking for your help in 2016: Believe in something that is bigger than you –support a worthy cause, or many— make a gift from your wallet, your heart, or your time. It might be animals threatened with extinction, forgotten people, places at war or impacted by disaster. We need you to make the world a better place.
Take a stroll with us through some of the recent places we’ve visited (Click on the abbey photo.) We’ll be back in 2016.
