Marc Lefkowitz Says:Speaking of Boston, I just got an email from the executive producer of a new online program for kids called Meet the Greens. Produced by WGBH in Boston, he's billed it as a comedy cartoon with characters that kids can relate to in situations where they talk about green things. It's a pretty cool way of introducing sustainability to the next generation.
