Green Ops

Green Ops We travel across Ohio and surrounding areas removing trash and pollutants from natural areas. And climb giants trees. And a mountain if they have one.

We came up with the idea for Green Ops while out hiking one day. As we were climbing a huge rock and finding bottles and cans, we realized it was hard to describe exactly what we were doing. We were hiking, but we were collecting garbage. We were picking up trash, but on the side of a cliff. Whatever it was, it was awesome, and WAY better then sitting inside playing video games. We want Green Ops

to show that not everyone who is 'green' is boring and responsible. And to remind people that as cool as your new TV is, it's got nothing on a giant mountain. We are outdoor enthusiasts who generally prefer that our natural areas not be treated as one giant trash can. We hike, kayak and canoe, climb giant trees, play disc golf, ski, jog, all the while picking up any trash we see, and trying to make things better than we found them. Not because we have some kind of moral guilt about fixing the world, but because the scenery kinda looks better without plastic bottles and old tires. We say recycle the bottles and make a million tire swings. Ok, a little bit of formalized seriousness for those who care...
Green Ops' primary mission is to locate and remove trash and pollutants from natural areas such as national, state, and local parks, nature preserves, hiking trails, and any other wild areas open to us. We also work to maintain public lands, support responsible development and wilderness preservation, and to promote the benefits of recreational opportunities, fitness activities, and a balanced, natural diet.

We want snow. But only if it's a whole bunch all at once, because an inch at a time or that whole flurry thing is just a tease.

Here are some of the latest details on the snow falling in the Northeast: http://wxch.nl/U1hGEC

The Heartland Institute and Sen. James Inhofe announced today that they have 15,000 signatures demanding that Congress gut the EPA.

That's a of MONUMENTAL proportions considering we helped collect more than THREE MILLION signatures in support of the EPA's pollution standard for power plants.

LIKE and SHARE to show your support for clean air standards that protect health and address climate change.
