GreenPRO
- is the Green Policy, Resolutions and Ordinance Database
which contains over a thousand real local policies, programs, resolutions and ordinances from cities, counties, school districts, labor unions and colleges through the United States (and a few international ones too!). While many websites offer advocacy and analysis of progressive issues, GreenPRO concentrates on the legislation itself. Most entries include the verbatim text of the legislation. The purpose behind GreenPRO is to help elected officials and citizen activists alike to craft local legislation in their own communities by seeing how other communities are tackling many of the same issues. It's also a great tool for researchers and academics interested in public policy. read more
