Welcome to the 214th edition of the Carnival of the Green.
This will probably be my last Carnival of the Green post, because I’m moving away from blogging to explore other creative pursuits. So, all nostalgic, I was looking back through EcoStreet’s archives at Carnival of the Green #13 that we hosted back in February 2006. It seems so long ago, and yet the Carnival of the Green is still going strong.
Last week it was hosted by the lovely Jeffrey over at The Fun Times Guide to Living Green, and next week you’ll find it at Project Earth.
