Community for those focused on sustainable travel. Our society's current levels of energy intensive and frequent travel are not compatible with life on a finite planet. We advocate for long-term slow travel to see the world, and low energy local travel to deeply experience your community. Green washing free zone.

Haven't been there yet! I accidentally hear a lot about the Green Line extension, because we also have a Green Line extension under construction in the Twin Cities.
