GreenWorks! is Project Learning Tree's (PLT) environmental community action component.

This is the premise and goal of GreenWorks! GreenWorks! offers PLT educators and their students the opportunity to use service learning projects to make a real difference in the communities in which they live and work. By combining the environmental knowledge and resources of PLT with community action initiatives, GreenWorks! projects have a true impact on the future of America.
