Missed the Screening? Don’t despair, the Green City, Clean Waters series is online

We had a great turnout to our Premier Screening event at the Fairmount Water Works Interpretive Center on October 6 — and you’ll be seeing alot of us and the inspiring Green City, Clean Waters videos over the next several months. If you just can’t wait for the next chance to view the videos in all their splendor on the Big Screen at a community event, we’re rewarding your impatience by making them available on on Green City, Clean Waters Channel at Vimeo.com.

We’ll introduce a new one here each week. Check out the first video in the series now, and share it around:

Green City, Clean Waters from GreenTreks Network on Vimeo.

The videos are also available on YouTube, so if you’re more of a “Toober”, watch ‘em there, embed ‘em, email ‘em to friends:

Like what you see? Great news: The entire series, plus a handful of other videos showing innovative ways other communities are preventing runoff from polluting our waterways, will available on DVD soon!

Keep your eyes peeled for more details…
