The annual “Greenest Block in Brooklyn” competition is underway. Per its website: “More than 1,200 blocks throughout Brooklyn have entered the contest since it was founded in 1994, and an estimated 500,000 residents have participated in this borough-wide beautification and greening effort. Application forms for 2008 are due by June 2.” More info and applications are available here. Go forth and let everyone know how green your block is, if it is.
