Learning To Be Green With The Help Of MLC
By Pauline Sato, Executive and Program Director, Malama Learning Center
As a child growing up in Hawaii, I got bit by the “green” bug, the type that got me to commit to taking care of our environment. Decades later, I’m happy that more people are now “going green.” Whether it’s for the purpose of saving money or a more intrinsic value, it’s all good. But learning how to be green takes some research, and sometimes it can appear to cost too much. That’s where Malama Learning Center (MLC) can help.
MLC is a nonprofit organization located in Kapolei that teaches and inspires communities to live and work in a healthy, sustainable way. Malama means “to care for” or “protect.” MLC strives to unify schools, residents and businesses around a shared ethic of caring and conservation.
