"Think Globally - Act Locally" is the  watchword. For instance, you can garden, visit local events such as Shoreline's "Earth Day- Every Day" event at Central Market and you can also visit the nearby Grand Opening of Martha Rose Construction's "Fish Singer Place" Development. It is a Green Development in the Greenwood Neighborhood that exceeds Shoreline's rigorous green building standards.

Here is Martha Rose's Blogpost about their upcoming event.
