dc.description.abstract | It is widely recognized that Mayor Daley of Chicago has been an important advocate for sustainable and green projects in the urban environment. However, the role of the grassroots advocate in championing these ideas has been critical to their initiation and establishing broad support for them locally and regionally. That role has been largely ignored. To shed light on the important role of green grassroots efforts in Chicago the failure of the Blue Bag Program is compared to the case studies of The Southeast Environmental Task Force, Eden Place Nature Center, and the unique case of Chicago Wilderness. In doing so, the importance of grassroots advocates in the environmental progress of Chicago is established. | |
