Portland Greenmap is a resource for places, services, and events that promote sustainable or 'green' living.



The mission of the project is to strengthen the community's awareness of and connection to its urban ecology and social resources through locally created maps.



Greenmaps arrange several types of information as a continuous integrated whole: urban hikes, how to get around without a car, socially responsible businesses, sources of pollution, great spots to watch the sunset, volunteer opportunities, hidden elements of water, waste, and energy systems, important social resources, and much more. The goal is to illuminate the inter-connections between society, nature and the built environment, helping residents to make lower impact lifestyle choices, or to make a difference by getting involved.
