How
Eco-friendly is our city?
Can the choices you make
in daily life - how to get from place to place, where
to shop, learn, relax and have fun, what to consume,
when to reuse or recycle - make a difference? Absolutely.
Baltimore
Green Map will
help you to find eco-opportunities in your neighborhood
and around our region. Using the international
Green Map® System Icons, we map Baltimore's
ecological and cultural resources and our city's
progress toward becoming a healthy, sustainable*
urban environment.
Baltimore Green
Map is an ever-evolving
project, including an online
map,
print maps, events and activities.
You can help. Nominate a site. Donate time or resources.

Read about us in April's Urbanite Green Guide.
The interactive Open Green Map
officially launched internationally on June 5, World Environment Day. Map Global. Celebrate Local! An
Official Proclamation from Baltimore Mayor Shiela Dixon designated Friday, June 5th as "Baltimore Green Map Day."
*Sustainable
Development balances environmental, economic
and social concerns to best meet the
needs of the present without compromising
the ability of future generations to
meet their own needs.
– Bruntland
Commission, 1987
