South Central Kentucky is enjoying an explosion of growth. This area that we call home is drawing residents and businesses from around the world.  With this population and industry boom it is vital that we consider the environment while growing.  This page (and other parts on the Going Green Bowling Green site) offer helpful local links to government agencies, local activists and more.  Find out what you can do to help the environment where we live.
