An Idea Into Action - Congressman Mark Green

Picture
"As an avid fly fisherman and outdoorsman, I care deeply about our environment. Unfortunately today, some of the extreme proposals out there have forced conservatives out of the discussion when we should very much be in it. I came up with this idea as an easy way for everyday Tennesseans from both sides of the aisle to come together and take a small first step toward protecting our environment, and beautifying our interchanges too. Because of House Ethics rules, I can't be a part of this project directly, but I am honored that this team has launched my idea, the Green Interchange, and I can't wait to see the impact they make."

Our Mission

Green Interchange’s mission is to plant trees and establish and sustain natural systems for healthier communities, economies, and quality of life. We plant trees near roadways, waterways and in other public and private spaces. We currently operate in Tennessee with a vision of offering our programs nationally in the future. Learn more about our mission, our work, and our impact.
