green by osmosis

It was a beautiful sunny day in Portland as I walked along hip and happening Mississippi Avenue with all Her cute boutiques and cafes.

I suddenly noticed this interesting musician (show at left) singing and playing the guitar.

Thinking of Green Streets, I approached him, introduced myself and asked a couple of questions which he was happy to answer. Here’s a glimpse:

PPnG: What’s your name and how old are you?

Peter: I’m Peter and I’m 42.

PPnG: What do you think of green living and how do you practice it?

Peter: I think it’s great. I’d love to export it to my original hometown of Atlanta. Being green happened to me (in Portland) by osmosis. I’ve been living here for most of the past 17 years and I just became accustomed to putting bottles and cans in the proper receptacle where they can be recycled. Everything makes sense. It’s not that difficult and it doesn’t make any sense not to do it. I consider myself a steward of the earth and I am happy to do all the wonderful green things that we do here in Portland and with no complaints.

How are you green? Leave your comment here and we’ll publish it.
