Green Goals

The Goal

Hi!  My name is Michelle Lasley and I have a goal of educating people on the importance of a sustainable society.  Now that I’m graduated from Portland State University, implementing that goal has become the next step.

I believe people want to take care of those people and things they care about, and at heart we all have the same or similar basic interests.  That interest is taking care of our families, friends, and homes.  But, we’re all busy working two jobs, taking care of families, and trying to keep in contact with those who live far away.  These hectic lifestyles sometimes make it hard to ‘do the right thing.’

So, this website was created to help people ‘do the right thing’ easier.  When considering ‘going green’ a lot of what we hear is confusing and sometimes conflicting. This blog attempts to cut through the clutter and make going green easier and easier to understand.
