It has been one year since Greenworks Philadelphia, Mayor Nutter’s sustainability plan, was unveiled, and this Wednesday the city will unveil the program’s First Annual Progress Report. It will be revealing to chart the successes and disappointments of the last year, as the Mayor has set quite an ambitious goal for Philadelphia: to become “the greenest city in America” by 2015. See The Plan here.
