TELL US: How Do You Go Green?

We're looking for all the great ways Vienna natives are working to preserve and protect the Earth. 

From composting to creative recycling, we want to hear what you do to minimize your carbon footprint, reduce waste, and just live a greener lifestyle.

Spring can be a good time for residents to start new green habits, or renew old ones.

Vienna has a green housing initiative, which recognizes those building or living in homes that use "geothermal heating and cooling, solar heat collectors and grid-connected photovoltaic panels or shingles," or other initiatives that significantly reduce the amount of energy or waste produced each year.

Every April, the town also hosts a Green Expo, where schools, businesses and homeowners show off their most recent projects and programs.

This year the expo is scheduled for April 18. Groups have until March 22 to apply. (Find the Exhibitor Application online.)

Until then, how do you go green? How are you planning to go green this year? Tell us below or upload a picture! 

This article has been corrected to reflect the correct date of the Green Expo.
