Greenopolis is a social networking site that develops online relations between everyday people, communities, organizations, schools and businesses. As an environmentally-focused social networking site, Greenopolis was created to engage users on green issues so that they might learn, explore and participate in an open dialogue about the present and future of our environment. 

Greenopolis is free for anyone who wants to join, and is an educational resource for anyone interested in learning about sustainability. The site was created to connect people of different demographics who all share a common concern for the environment and are looking for the means in which to exchange ideas.

While Greenopolis shares some features with other environmental Web sites, such as sustainability resource guides, green job sites, social networking, educational organizations and grant-making institutions, Greenopolis is unique in that it combines all of these opportunities in a single community.

Greenopolis has a broad range of information accessible to users, aggregated from a number of institutions that have conducted studies, experiments, or observations centered on the environment. Through Greenopolis, people can learn not only green facts - the average person generates 4.5 pounds of trash per day - but also usable information to change their behavior, like how driving a car 55 mph rather than 65 will give about 15 percent better fuel economy.

Waste Management sponsored the creation of the site to encourage individuals, communities, non-profits and businesses to communicate about green practices, to give users a tool to share ideas and to encourage people to make positive, incremental changes in their daily lives.
