buses and most of its buildings use non-polluting energy sources like geothermal and 
hydroelectricity.

successfully cleaning up their water and air.
 Portland, Oregon, was one of the first American cities to focus on earth-friendly 
transit with light-rail and bike paths to encourage people to leave their cars at home.
 Curitiba, Brazil, uses unique green methods for maintenance. Their grass parks are 
trimmed by sheep!
