Green Brides
I've never been a fan of big, opulent weddings—just ask my wife—but when I learned about how many pounds of garbage and CO2 a wedding produces, I had to write this story on the work of Kate Harrison, who, as an environmentalist and educator, decided to create a web resource for brides who maintain a social responsibility—even on "their special day." This story illustrates how buying local and presenting green alternatives in an easy-to-follow fashion can reduce the wasteful attitudes that are stressing our planet.
