E-mail your thoughtsGreen is smart. Atlanta can become a leader in environmental sustainability by embracing our natural environment and promoting efficient use of natural resources in city departments, homes and businesses. Our high density areas are ripe for greenroofs. Our recycling program needs to be more expansive and innovative. We can reduce the costs of city services by reexamining our practices. Our quality of life depends on more green-space, better sidewalks and more bicycle lanes. Moreover, green can mean more jobs for residents.

- introduce green roof legislation for our urban corridor.
- work with Sustainable Atlanta to drastically reduce the carbon footprint of city service delivery.
- promote a citywide urban agriculture initiative.
- ask the City to investigate use of cost-saving LED lighting for street and parking garage lighting.

Gregory V. Eason, Sr., Senior Pastor, Big Bethel A.M.E.Amir is well prepared to serve as councilperson at large for the city of Atlanta. He understands the issues, challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for the city of Atlanta. I believe that Amir is the person to help unite our city as we move progressively forward in the future.
