Each team will be wearing 100% organic cotton shooting shirts and take part in community events such as tree plantings, recycling drives and clean-up days. Autographed memorabilia will also be auctioned off with proceeds benefiting the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC). Teams are showing support for Green Week in various ways: free tickets for those taking public transportation, biodegradable food products, e-cycling drives, even home energy audit coupons. The Denver Nuggets, Charlotte Bobcats, and the Chicago Bulls will wear green-colored uniforms and socks made from 45 percent organic cotton to raise awareness of the environment at home games.

This is great news for such a large organization to show their support for the green movement. Hopefully this will inspire others to do the same!
