Superheroes unite for the planet. Two Green Team members, sans capes, met David Coburn, aka the voice of Captain Planet at the Go Green Expo at the Hilton Hotel!! After telling the Captain Planet Foundation's Captain Planet himself all about the Brooklyn Green Team, he said, aside from, "The Power is Yours!" "You are Planeteers." POW! We've Been Greened!
Meanwhile at the event, there was some greenwashing, but lots of gems too....

Mother and daughter team Jill Palermo and Judy Pezdir started weaddup.com, which is an awesome T-shirt company that donates 100% of their profits to the environment. How it works is you pick an environmental cause you care about such as reycling, lightbulbs, biking, solar, and they print a t-shirt with your unique number to show how many people care about that cause.
