Good words

The green economy has the power to deliver new sources of work, wealth and health to low-income people — while honoring the Earth. If you can do that, you just wiped out a whole bunch of problems. We can make what is good for poor black kids good for the polar bears and good for the country.

  • The “Toad-ily Frogs” exhibit opening this Friday at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History is part of the “Year of the Frog” initiative devoted to helping save amphibians from extinction.
  • The success of the Towpath Trail will be determined by how many tendrils it sends into Cleveland neighborhoods. Four Near West neighborhoods—Tremont, Ohio City, Clark-Metro and Stockyards—look to repeat the new Treadway connector at Train Avenue, site of a buried tributary to the Cuyahoga River known as Walworth Run.
  • We all live in a watershed—the land area draining into a river or lake. This weekend, be a steward of your watershed by joining the year’s biggest volunteer clean up effort: the 19th annual RiverSweep. As part of the upcoming Cleveland Bicycle Week, participants are encouraged to bike to the event.
