Go Green
Rockford Woman editor Jennie Pollock knows that we’re not going to transform our lifestyles overnight, but she looks for ways big and mostly small to protect our planet. Read about her experiences (she’s tried giving up plastic and meat, for example) and share your possible solutions here.

In case you missed it, Rockford Mayor Larry Morrissey recently returned from an trade mission to China and Sweden to attract international business. We have sister cities in both countries, and there’s a green angle: Sweden is known for pushing technologies. China, like America, is a huge energy consumer, and one company is pursuing this local project (photo below from the press conference).

FYI, the mayor blogged about his trip here.

    China and Green are an odd couple at best.
