Mission:Green Guru Network is a clear, easy to use website for sharing sustainable ideas, finding useful resources and building green community in The Hudson Valley. Our Output:Green Guru Network (GGN) is the directory of the Green Revolution. We’re dedicated to simplifying the process of building sustainability in government, households, education and business by sharing green information and showcasing success. GGN is powered by its members. Each member has a detailed profile searchable by key words. Members supply all site content; rate and discuss green projects, products, services, groups, funding and institutions; and help each other save research time, energy and money. Customized searches pinpoint sustainability needs, while organized targeted listings find quick answers to green questions. For thorough research, members can link to forums, webinars and teleclasses. The bottom line…GGN helps build green community, partnering opportunities and resource collaborations—keeping all on task to affect change. Our Commitment:GGN is committed to sustainable movers and shakers. With the extraordinary need to reduce our carbon footprint, GGN helps members slice through the myriad of government agencies, non profits, volunteer groups, schools, consultants, green products and services to discover the most useful resources. Members inform members of unprecedented government allocations for energy efficiency, material conservation, agriculture and sustainable community development; grants to "shovel ready projects" and requests for proposals with very short windows of opportunity. Today’s decisions makers want examples of success, mentors, products, services and templates. Green Guru Network provides a means to exchange timely information and create alliances for the green market. Our Difference:Green Guru Network combines member-owned web content with searchable organization—linking stakeholders to what's current in their field. With GGN, members stay on top of best practices and target new resources and opportunities. Our Reach:Green Guru Network targets members in the Hudson Valley and surrounding areas engaged in greening operations, lowering costs and searching out funding opportunities. |
