Sawan Kirpal Meditation Center in Bowling Green, Virginia On March 1, 2013 members of the Grassroots Green Team laced up their “kicks” and marched in solidarity out of Washington, D.C. in the direction of Tuskegee, Alabama. The primary focus was to bring awareness to the fact that pollution is one of the major causes of death on our planet; more so than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined. Car fatalities do not cause more deaths than pollution. With over 20,000 satellites circling our Planet, there is junkyard in the sky that is causing subtle damages to mankind. In his second inaugural address President Obama said "Go Green!" but the fact is that most people do not know what that means. With our 1300 mile "Green Respect for Mother Earth" Walk we hoped to share with communities what Going Green really means and also share solutions. With each stop from Virginia to Alabama we shared information and inspiration. If a seven year old “Green Super Kid” can walk across the country for the planet, what can YOU do?
